Great product. I have been using it now for over a month and it has saved me so much time. Once you get the hang of it you just fly through debarbing process. since dad passed away the fencing had been run down on the farm and i use this on every repair job. I Will buy a second one as a back up. I rate this product highly.
Very awkward to use, barbs dont fit in
Hi Ian
i just love all your fencing tools and tips
However the Debarber didn't full fill my expectations
This due however as the NZ barb is on a 45 Deg or less to line of wire
so barb tends to squash flat rather than untwist
No regrets on purchase and will try on different makes of barb
please let me know if i can demonstrate or help in your NZ market
Thanks again Rob
G'day Rob,
Thanks for your message. Apologies for the delay in responing to your feedback. Would greatly apreciate it if you could send me a picture of the barb in question to sales@wireman.com.au. I was in NZ last year for Mystery Creek and we are looking to make another visit next year. We will let you know when our itinery is confirmed. Regards, Ian
Have had success on normal barb but high tensile barb is limited success which is majority of my work. I wonder if I bought the right product for the job. Any feedback is appreciated. Richard.
Practice makes perfect.. maybe in instructions need to say that you need to turn it around to do the other side. But hubby loves it

Its the old saying with the Crinkler. Why didnt I think of that. What a brilliant concept and product. So easy to use and first class tough quality that I can see lasting for years and years. Well done to Wireman and I would highly recommend this product to anyone else. Thats honest. I am a real person, not a machine. I bet a machine doesnt have slack wire fences. Well I did, But not now :)
Love the wire stariners from wire man, Have two of them now and would have no problem buying a third. Some bit of kit to have in the tool box. Easy to use and easy to remove from fence lines.
Great customer service & support from Ian.
An awesome piece of equipment & engineering.
Takes majority of the hard work out of tying off fencing wire / mesh.
Highly recommended & works really well, especially in the tight places.
Excellent service and prompt delivery.
Used on two different brands of stars, clean fit to Waratah and a small amount of hammering to fit onto Stockpost. Coupled with Davo's Fencing Clips and Davo's Reel clips for an exclusion fence with a finished height of 2m.

So easy to use. An excellent option to create deer exclusion fencing without having to remove existing fences
thanks a great product saving heaps of time and effort .
We were changing the use of a section of our block and needed to raise the fence height to keep out deer and kangaroos. This product was effective and very easy to use.
Love the Crinkler.
Very easy to do and results speak for themselves.
Awesome bit of kit 👍🏻
Hi I haven’t used it very much at all to be honest but I’m impressed so far. Hopefully the metal components don’t rust over time is something I thought of. Thanks.
The Vice man from down under has made it again! The Viceman 1,5m are incomparable lightweight and easy to handle. Even though very strong and durable. Best strainers ever!
Love it. Awesome
Brilliant
