👉 The farmer's weapon, often referred to as a "fence gun" or "barbed wire cutter," is a specialized tool designed to defend crops from livestock, particularly in regions where grazing animals pose a significant threat. This weapon typically consists of a long, sturdy handle with sharp, barbed metal teeth or a metal blade attached to the end. Farmers use it to swiftly and effectively cut through the tough hides of cattle, sheep, or goats, deterring them from approaching and damaging their crops. The design allows for quick, precise strikes, minimizing the risk of injury to the farmer while maximizing efficiency in protecting valuable agricultural assets.
