[QUOTE="Farm Fence Solutions, post: 1489504, member: 26621"] Two point is typically woven in between the two strands of line wire, and 4 point is not. The simple advantage is cost. 2 point weighs less, since there is less steel, which equates to a cheaper wire. I suppose the argument could be made that an interwoven barb couldn't slip, but a well made reverse twist 4 point won't slip, either. Based on what I've seen and heard the past couple of years, 14 gauge HT 4 point is quickly becoming the new standard of barbed wire. [/QUOTE]
