"Concertina" describes the type of coiling, and most razor wire is concertina style... it's not a type of wire unto itself, unless you're referring simply to coiled wire with no spikes or proddy bits. Even then, it's just wire.


My mistake. I thought the razor wire that looks like little bow ties was concertina.

I'm sure you have.


that first picture was just fucking sexy.

though it wouldn't be so sexy if someone tried to throw a rug or blanket over it and got all mangled in it.

So people, don't throw shit over razor wire and expect it to work.

I've warned you all, so now if anyone doesn't listen and gets hurt I have the right to laugh at you. Cos it's seriously a bad idea. I have bad ideas all the time, and then I go and do them, and I wouldn't even try throwing a rug over that. If you really want to know how to get over some, pm me a pic and I will type up idiot proof instructions for you if I have to. If you die on a site, it makes things harder for the rest of us.

Nope- that's called barbed tape, or something similar. Still sharper than barbed, but not nearly as bad as razor.

"Razor wire" is a trademarked name for barbed tape (i.e. "kleenex").

Then it's all razor and it's small, medium and HUGE (aka, urbex gutters)

I'm sure you have.


Sorry, I was being literal. I've approached it and then cautiously climbed over in places that aren't dangerous. Most of the other kinds of things are ok to run into, they'll only poke you a bit.

Well a shitty rug no. But I'd expect a real carpet torn up from a house to work as long as it's a quick up and over.

I've come across razor wire when I was young and we wanted to climb to the top of a water tank. It was an easy walk up some stairs but the entrance and pumps had a fence with razor wire on top.

I found it easiest to get through where a gate intersected the fence and the wire had a 6" break in it. The gate was topped with it too. The 2 of us made it through. I still managed to cut my leg bad, but I was wearing shorts.

The rug or heavy carpet trick may work, but who is going to lug that to the site?

the rug wouldnt sit ontop of the wire... it would fold it down either side and make it a much easier climb. my 2c.

Y'know, I think that is the way to go. Throw something heavy on top to fold the wire down, and then don't touch the wire-cover because it can poke through and cut you.

It was a 'try to leave no trace, keeping any possible POE still open" kinda trip.. The razor wire (long sharp type) was brand spanking new. We did get past, but the POEs were all closed up. MEH!

that would work. or one could snip it at a point where they could kinda bend it attached again after they leave. Breaking and entering is a better risk than bleeding out bleeding out behind the fence. Though I find that both are unnecessary as there is almost always a way to go around or under.

The location in question by impaler doesn't have tunnels, but for some places tunnels are a great way to bipass security methods. Vents are good too.

I've also found gently tossing a full bottle of cheap liquor over a fence works well. The hobos will try to climb over the wire, get stuck, and leave a nice poke-proof trail for you to climb over.

A sheet of Kevlar would be ideal, or heavy leather. I've had trouble getting a needle through leather before.

I like the rug idea.

I think a good quality Berber with underpadding installed by professionals would work.

Approach the carpetted area, then carefully climb over the bloody corpses of the installers.

They tend to get a bit gamey... so wear your resp.

They also tend to be a bit mucky... so make sure to have rubber boots.


I like Robs suggestion.. nothing beats a quality POE. They just dont make em like that anymore.

If it was me I wouldn't bother with that shit at all...Ive always called it constantine wire, but anyway its a little more thicker than your average farm grade barb wire and really difficult to cut. You won't get through it with a normal pair of wire cutting pliers.

I would cut out a human sized square at the bottom of the fence and using some wire from the fence ties or wire on hand, make a "hinge" of sorts. Make it so it looks kinda like a doggie door and do it in a part of the location thats less than obivous.


As a side note..I really hope your not UEing in full ACU'S!
This stuff is great for the urban environment, but if your going to wear them please don't wear any patches, name, rank or the like. Im Army too and Ill wear the pants but leave your blouse at home..its just not wise, or at the least go sterile on the patches. I mean its not like its bad to do but Im just saying that if you get caught thats not a time to be identified as military.

Okaaaaay

Talking directly and openly about things that could be construed as b&e on uer isn't the best idea.

And ACUs in most urban environments make you stand out. Cos the city ain't green bro. All black isn't the best idea either. Dull normal looking colours are great. Though I manage to pull of bright colours and skirts and stupid things like that. But girls in pretty colours and skirts don't trespass.

And you can so cut razor wire with even dollar store snips if you get the right ones. But that's illegal.

Pickup the next roadkill* deer you see lying on the side of the road toss him over the top of the fence. Not only will you have padding for yourself it'll make any security guard say WTF?
