How about blackthorn, they have evil spikes and can be controlled as a hedge or let grow to tree. If you want to pick the sloes don't do what we did, we planted them very close so you need a suit of armour to try and get the berries, it's dense though

Rosa rugosa is cheap, pretty, grows well even in poor soil but, best of all, it has little hairy thorns that stick in your skin!!

I've just bought taller rugosa roses to plant along my property line and some of the varieties have vicious thorns, just what I wanted to discourage trespassers. They'll propagate easily too so you can spread the wealth
