PlayStation has metal Wolverine claws made for Marvel’s Wolverine

In brief
- PlayStation had Fiedlero Knives make a set of metal Wolverine claws as promo for Marvel’s Wolverine. The prop was tested on fresh vegetables.
PlayStation shared the stunt itself in an official post on X/Twitter. In that post, the company said it had recreated Wolverine’s powerful blades in real life with help from Fiedlero Knives. The source ties the stunt to the release of Marvel’s Wolverine and says the game launched earlier that month.
GameSpot also notes that the prop is not made of adamantium, but it is shaped as a realistic nod to Wolverine’s hand-mounted claws. The publication also places the stunt alongside a recent patch for the game, which reportedly toned down scent trails and audio cues for collectibles.
What happened
GameSpot reports that PlayStation had a real-life prop made around Marvel’s Wolverine and brought in Fiedlero Knives for the job. The result is a metal set of claws that visually references Wolverine’s hand-mounted blades and practical film props that aim for the same effect. The source explicitly calls it a custom set of Wolverine-inspired claws and says PlayStation had them made to celebrate the launch of Marvel’s Wolverine.
According to the article, the prop was also tested on fresh vegetables. The claws reportedly cut through them without any trouble, which the publication links to the game’s launch earlier that month. The source description makes clear that the set looks dangerous, but in context it is a promotional demonstration rather than a functional weapon.
PlayStation’s official post lines up with that. The text says Wolverine is sharpening his claws on PS5 and that PlayStation recreated his powerful blades in real life with help from Fiedlero Knives. That confirms both the collaboration and the promotional nature of the project. The source material also says the prop was made as a reference to the character’s iconic claws, without giving further technical details about the full build.

2026-09-23: PlayStation shares an official post on X/Twitter, according to the source, saying it recreated Wolverine’s powerful blades in real life with help from Fiedlero Knives.
earlier in September 2026: Marvel’s Wolverine is said by the source to have launched, after which PlayStation tied the promotional prop to that release.
shortly before 2026-09-23: GameSpot refers to a patch for Marvel’s Wolverine that toned down scent trails and audio cues for collectibles.
Background
The source also mentions a recent patch for Marvel’s Wolverine that reduced scent trails and audio cues for collectibles. Those patch details are not fully included in the provided material, but they show Insomniac Games was still adjusting the game shortly after launch. In the context provided here, it is a hotfix covered in a separate article, which makes the timing of the promotional prop especially relevant because both stories were published close together.
The combination of a physical prop and an official social post fits into a broader promotional campaign around the release of Marvel’s Wolverine. The available source does not add more product details, but it does say PlayStation explicitly highlighted the collaboration with Fiedlero Knives. The YouTube embed in the source context repeats the same core idea: that PlayStation had a set of Wolverine-inspired claws made to celebrate the launch of Marvel’s Wolverine. That means the PlayStation and Fiedlero Knives partnership appears across multiple source layers.
The provided context also mentions Hugh Jackman in the fact report, but the actual source text in this set focuses mainly on the prop’s design and its comparison to practical film props. No additional technical specifications are given about the metal, finish, or exact construction method. What is clear is that the source describes the claws as a metal prop and says the fresh-vegetable demonstration was part of GameSpot’s coverage.

Instead, it's much easier--and less traumatic--to simply hire some blacksmiths to craft you a set, which is exactly what PlayStation did to celebrate the launch of Marvel's Wolverine .
