Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) - Screen-Used Stunt Claws, X2: X-Men United (2003)
X2 - Screen-Used Stunt Prop, Signed by Maker
Wolverine is the claws. No other prop in the character visual vocabulary defines him so completely, and this pair was used on set during the production of X2: X-Men United (2003), one of the most respected chapters of the original trilogy and the film in which Hugh Jackman Wolverine moved from introduction to icon.
The claws were built for the production by Jimmy Claws, the artist responsible for creating Wolverine props, and they carry his signature, a detail that is rarely found on screen-used material and that converts an anonymous set object into an attributable artefact. The accompanying Certificate of Authenticity is the maker own, which for prop collectors is the strongest form of documentation short of direct studio paperwork.
As a stunt version, the piece was designed to be safe, light and manageable on set while preserving a credible screen presence through its battle-worn metallic finish. The blades are in rigid stunt plastic and resin, mounted on metal internal supports with moulded grips. The ensemble is completed by a dedicated display with a promotional poster, making it museum-ready as presented.
Screen-used Wolverine material sits at the centre of superhero collecting, and the claws in particular appear in official posters, trailers and campaign imagery from the film. For a collection built around Marvel, X-Men or twentieth-century cinema props, this is a defining object: signed by its maker, documented and instantly recognisable.
