All you sort of need are the cutters. No need to pull fence staples. Of course jumping the fence is always faster.

Out here you just yank out the staples, push the barb wire down to the ground and drive over.  No tool required.

I recommend 14" bolt cutters. No use in cutting bolts, but work wonders on wire, even high tensile.

I keep a pair of bolt cutters in my offroad truck.

On long trips I pack my cordless angle grinder and sawzall. (among other things).

Gonna look into adding an emergency ham to my list.

But why would you be anywhere near a wildfire without being in a bigass fire truck?

Hell, them look like regular old fencing pliers. We used them all the time to build fences.



I would go with the bolt cutters as well. I want to be able to cut cyclone fencing if need be.
