      I am not sure if any metal will ever be available with such properties. For sure we can manufacture diamonds which are the hardest material we know of.

      If I recall correctly Adamantium is defined by Marvel to be the strongest metal in the universe, so I think no matter how strong a metal we create it will never be enough 😛 We have manufactured some pretty hard materials though, as Michele says.

      Question — which is stronger, Wolverine’s claws, or Captain America’s shield (which is a steel-vibranium alloy)?
