i've checked the web and can't seem to find anyone that lists the prices for various types of fencing...razor wire, barbed wire. etc.

any ranchers, construction people give me a rough idea what the stuff costs..per foot?

nothing exotic like stainless steel pricing or anything. just the basic razor wire.

thanks!

All razor wire is SS.

not really my concern, but what the hell do you want with razor wire?

I hate to be a jackass, well, I don't mind it that bad, but you must have not searched too hard. A quick yahoo search for "razor wire" came up with

[url]http://www.wiremanfence.com/Razor.htm[/url]
which has prices

and
[url]http://www.security-fencing.com/security-fencing-razor-wire.htm[/url]
which doesn't have prices, but they have many e-mail addresses you could contact them at

1g - it is also available in galvanized form.

mattsd - it is probably best that you don't know. :)

pr - you can be a jackass anytime, i like your honest appraoch. plus you actually took the time to check the web.

yahoo is the only thing i didnt check since i unknowingly didn't have that seach engine enabled. i must have spent 30 mins looking though and only found a handful of suppliers. also, most seemed to be security fencing contractors and wanted to "discuss my needs".  instead, i opted to hit up the ar15 never ending supply of obscure knowledge.

..perhaps i'll call for prices today. either way, the stuff doesn't seem cheap.

You may as well go all out and get some electrified concertina wire. [url]http://www.esjay.com/intro.html[/url]

Let us know where you find the best price and how much it is when you find it. I might be looking for something similar this summer.
