He’s always there, whether you see him or not.

There's not a square millimeter of this piece that doesn’t evoke the Batman™. From the meticulously etched blade finish, to the Kevlar-inspired G10 handle; the Batcycle’s influence on the display stand, to the arm-gauntlet spine jimping.

Never Tire of It.

What matters most is what you see, both at a glance and in deep scrutiny. Explore the intricate details and discover the elements of the Batman™ universe woven throughout this piece.

Magnetized to hold your knife in place.

Powerful magnets on the stand’s inner wall keep your blade exactly where you set it on proud display.

Single-piece, heavy-duty, enduring.

Aluminum was superheated and liquidized at 1300°F, then cast into a precision mold under high pressure. Weighing in at over 1.5 kilos, your stand will last a lifetime—and more.

Intricate detailing.

Shaped through a precision cold stamping process, the stainless steel base showcases details added through acid etching to create a lasting depth variation.

Inspired by the Batcycle.

To finalize the stand, a stainless steel deflector is precision drilled and shaped to achieve the ideal angle.

As exclusive as it gets.

Your brass etched certificate of authenticity carries your very own, UV printed edition number.

Hidden beneath the stand.

The exclusivity of your StudioForge Bladed Displayable is underscored by an ultra-precise, laser-engraved limited edition mark.

American steel—the only choice for Batman™.

A proprietary steel developed for exclusive use by Dalstrong and StudioForge, BD1N-VX™ is a nitrogen based, professional grade steel.

Ultra-premium.

Vacuum melted to form a much purer fine-grain steel with drastically fewer impurities than traditional knife blades, BD1N-VX™ sharpens to a surgical edge, and is virtually immune to corrosion.

Use it your way, it’s not just for display.

The Gotham City™ Edge may be a Bladed Displayable, but it can serve you powerfully in the kitchen if you choose.

High-tech engineering.

With a texture reminiscent of Kevlar and incredible toughness, G10 was the only choice for the handle.

Military-Spec Material.

Used in military and aerospace applications because it’s borderline indestructible, G10, also known as Garolite, is a fiberglass and resin-based composite that’s impervious to moisture, and highly-resistant to extreme temperatures.

Painstakingly constructed.

The handle was compression molded as 5 different pieces, then meticulously assembled and carved with diamond-tipped tools to make sure every tiny detail is as precise and exact as possible.

Locked in for life.

Triple rivets keep the full tang steel, a single piece from blade tip to end cap, where it belongs for the long haul.

Of course it comes in black.

It just had to. A micro-thin layer of black Titanium Nitride radically boosts the blade’s durability, making it virtually immune to corrosion and rust even after years.

Sleek cuts.

If you choose to put your knife to work in the kitchen, this coating also helps create a silky smooth slicing experience by greatly reducing friction and food-stick.

Built different.

Unlike the classic chef knife, the Gotham City Edge™ doesn’t follow tradition with a bulky bolster. It flows directly from handle to blade to create a more engaging grip in your hand.

Excellent control.

The concave heel shape is more than a design nod to the Batman™, creating more space to grip without aggravating your knuckles.

The outer bounds of sharpness.

Dalstrong’s expertise in knife craft comes to the fore here. Our very own Dalstrong Diamond Detailing (D3™) brings the blade edge to a surgically sharp, fine, yet durable  edge with a 9-13° edge grind.

Time-tested meets innovation.

Fusing modern technology with the Japanese Honbazuke technique, our three-step treatment ensures ruthless sharpness that lasts the distance.

The new gold standard in blade longevity.

Each and every blade is intensely thermo-and-cryo conditioned with Dalstrong’s Lionshield™ Treatment  to radically boost its durability to impact, wear, tear and corrosion.

Rigorously tested.

Every blade undergoes multi-stage testing to guarantee razor-sharp quality and performance right out of the box.
