Hey guys,
I've been searching for some days now but does anyone actually make steel claws for sale at all? I can only find aluminum replicas, but those aren't very strong.
Come on Primo, I know you have to have a mirror. Let's see that Heron x1 already lol!
Mine are stainless steel, they were made when X-2 came out and are official, but I can't remember what company made them. It's been over ten years now, hard to believe. They are cool, but they have a dull edge and I do not think they would hold up well if I tried to cut something with them (I think they would break off the handle). They look a little odd in my hands too. They are for display and it came with a X- plaque. No one makes steel claws that I am aware of, but they make stainless steel ones. I have seen a few on sale on ebay, bear in mind I can't speak for the quality of these I only have the official X-2 claws. Stainless steel is not completely rust proof, but for the most part it won't be an issue. Here is mine.

You can see me holding them in my avatar as well as the pictures on page 143 also.
Thanks man, yeah I like my claws. Stainless steel works good for Wolverine claws, but I would love to have some claws made out of titanium, however it is so hard to work with titanium because of its melting point and other factors. Just like adamantium. hahaThose are some very nice claws indeed. I guess stainless steel would be the way to go but I haven't seen any that match the blade cut from the wolverine films. If I could just find the blade portions themselves I would have them custom fitted to my hands.

and check out this interview. Hugh Jackman thinks a new Wolverine is 'inevitable' | NDTV Movies.com I dread the day that someone else is Wolverine instead of Hugh Jackman.

thanks guys
They are hollow plastic and attach to a plate that sits on the back of the hand. I used them myself for an Ultimate Wolverine costume years ago by removing the spandex and putting them inside fingerless leather gloves.
Do you have any pictures are they more cylindrical likelihood the comic ones or are they more like the movie shape?
I can probably take a couple of pictures later as I still have them. They are kind of a semi circle shape, curved tops with flat bottoms.
