Yeah it is, and the version the army buys comes with metal mesh gloves to wear while handling it. Design and shape has changed since first use in Nam in the 60's, but it is still called razor wire, because that is what those edges are. Early design was a continues strip wrapped around the core wire, both edges sharpened. I heard it was invented in West Germany.

Good capture Bmac is it there to keep people out or keep them in.Over here people tend to cement the top of their walls and before it sets they smother it with jagged pieces of broken glass.
