Suitable for old toy figures from 30 mm around 1914-18. Played with but in good condition.
The first military applications were in the Second Boer War when British troops used barbed wire to protect their military bases from incursions. Barbed wire was also used in the Russo-Japanese War, but without any realisation of the implications for future warfare. The trench warfare of the First World War would not have been possible without barbed wire entanglements.
