has anyone broken fence wire with this

No. I have thrown it into trees though. It's sharp but the ridges kind of get in the way

This survival knife can go through a coconut with relative ease, you shouldn't have any issues with fence wire

I haven't but I'm sure I could, and fence wire is not all created equal. But you learn how, to use it and you can break it, just use it a different way on heavy and another on fine. Use it wrong and you can ruin the knife and that's all knives.

It's possible but time consuming it's a very sharp weapon n deadly. Great to defend yourself or nice collecter item.

I didn't have any problems with the fence. It is well crated and even survived a drop from the lift-gate with only damage to one of the fence adjustment clamps - which was promptly replaced.

IT IS wire covered in plastic and extremely strong. I have yet to sever it, like chains, which become unhinged.

Yes, you can. It is fairly pliable. I did complete 180's with it, by hand, the way I hooked it to the hooks on the wall! It seems to basically be electric fence wire with a plastic coating, so it is very good!

This wire is very durable, and can be bent back and forth many times without breaking. The actual number of times the wire can be bent before breaking is quite variable, and greatly depends on the amount of tension placed on the wire. Small samples of this wire in various gauges can be obtained at no cost to US customers from Blick Art Materials for testing its durability before making a puchase.

No, that is wrong. I use this wire with the PetSafe YardMax and it works perfectly fine.Perhaps you are confusing twisted wire with stranded wire. Twisted wire, when referring to in ground dog fences, is when two different wires (stranded or solid core) are twisted together to create a "dead spot" in your fence system.

Unfortunately they do not, but it's a thick wire and doesn't look like it's going to break easily. So far so good for me!

Yes, they can break, I've broken the 'fit together clips' on two so far. The first one broke freeing a snow plough pick up truck and the second one broke on my car in snow deeper than its underbelly. Originally I was going to throw out the broken ones but instead I'm going to try wiring them together with heavy gauge wire. I can't see why the won't work, its just a different way of connecting them. The clips are like interlocking plastic hooks.

We have never used it with tape, but one thing we found that REALLY helps with the connection between the box and the fencing is good copper wire. It helps transmit a very hot shock. It might be worth a try with the tape before returning the box!

Yes. I tried cutting it with heavy scissors and that didn't work. With wire cutters, it was easy.

Yes, I did it and it works fine. You have to punch two holes for the shocking wires. Used a hot awl to seal the frayed edges.

Unfortunately I am no longer using this product. The first time I used it the wire broke. The wire was very cheeply done.

I have not had good luck with it. I got it for use in a rv project where wires were in a bundle. It was almost impossible to get it down to one wire,witch is why I got it. Was good for a fault checker

I went through a set (After like four years, a wire broke for the left piece, in the right piece right at the entrance to case [non-repairable]). My Mom did not like me using them to talk to her. Others found it difficult to understand me.

We have the PetSafe inground fence for Little Dogs and we used this to repair a severed wire. All is working well!
