I took some logs to a sawmill a couple of years ago, he didn't find any barbwire, but 2 staples! I think it cost me a few extra bucks. At least with the wire sticking out like that you know what you have.
 
One place I was working a couple months ago the customer had the wiring for landscape wiring running up into a tree. You could see where the wire went into the tree at the base and where it came out each limb to the light but the wire was completely in the tree.
 
Found a tree like that with the chainsaw yesterday. Didn't break any teeth, but sure dulled the chain.
 
that's the reason if I have to cut a tree that I know was in a fence row I cut above the fence top. Leave the rest there to cut with a poor chain or to rot out. Not worth hitting the metal. If you cut a tree and it bleeds blue on the end there is iron in it. According to a log guy I was talking to one time he told me that and if they see that they x-ray the log for the iron and cut that out. That is also the reason dad went to putting a board 2x4 or something up beside a tree for the wire and then loosely putting a wire or plastic twine around the tree. He would also loosen the wire as years past and wire was getting tighter on the tree. Though I don't think he has been doing that so much in the last few years. He's now 89 so does less of that. Still cuts his wood for furnace yet.
