Well they have made it clear there are things lightsabers can't cut through, aka vibroblades. It all depends on if you adamantium is better than a vibroblade. Of course it the end they are both fake but still something fun to think about.
Can a lightsaber cut through adamantium??

Well considering that a lightsaber blade is essentially superheated plasma and that adamantium's only weakness is heat, then yes I believe it could.
While that is indeed pretty neat, it's still not a lightsaber. It's a portable laser.Kungfu_Teddybear said:
Go fencing with that one, and everything around you in a radius of whatever its reach is would be on fire.
Sorry for being pedantic.
*sigh* Lightsabers "cut" things by rapidly melting them. Like a plasma-torch, there is no actual blade... Phisics Fail.[/quote]DarkenedWolfEye said:
Are you claiming that I fail at physics, or the movies? Because if you're very sure that's how lightsabres work (and yes that IS how you spell 'sabre'), then that still doesn't make sense because they can cut through non-melting, heat-resistant things when according to that theory, they shouldn't be able to.

According to my knowledge (and this page), I'd like to think that it can't. After all, adamantium can not be broken.

According to the Marvel Directory, hardened Adamantium (not liquid form) can not be moulded even if the temperature is high enough to keep it in it's liquidized form.
So I quote "Adamantium is created through the mixing of certain chemical resins whose composition is a United States government secret. For eight minutes after the resins are mixed, the Adamantium can be molded into a particular shape as long as it is kept at a temperature of 1,500 degrees Fahrenheit. After this brief period the process of creating Adamantium is completed. The extremely stable molecular structure of the Adamantium prevents it from being molded further, even if the temperature remains high enough to keep it in liquefied form. Only a device celled a Molecular Rearranger can alter the form of hardened Adamantium."

Isn't that just bad writing(irony
), though. Aslo "sabre/saber" can be spelled either way.

OT: First, tell me what the hell a light saber's composition is.
FOR THE THIRD TIME.. *punches browser in the spleen*
no...
adamantium = superconductor
lightsaber = energy blade
energy + superconductor = energy won't build up
energy not build up = no heat
no heat = no cutting
no cutting = well you get the idea
Lightsabers can cut through vibroblades, only things with a cortosis weave are immune to lightsabers. Read the item description next time.
otherwise, yoda could still kick wolverines ass.

Well considering how long it took Qui-Gon to cut through that door in Phantom Menance. I'd say it would probably take awhile.
I'm not trying to argue with anybody about this but based on the FICTION that I read.The way a light saber cuts through objects isn't because its burning through it but because the beam separates molecules.
So I guess it could eventually cut through anything.

I'm going to go the opposite way of most here and say no. Technically maybe if you go at it long enough it can slowly cut through, but for all intents and purposes this question is asking could Wolverine fight against a lightsaber armed Jedi/Sith. And if it's a live Wolverine you're trying to cut through, cutting 'slowly' isn't going to cut it. Now who would win between Wolverine and a Jedi/Sith I have no idea.
I would have to assume it would cut it like butter. I mean Adimantium is a metal we ""supposedly"" created during this modern era. One would have to assume by the time we have colonized the galaxies the metals we use would be infinitely stronger, and I think lightsabers are said to cut through most of those metals. It would be like a plasma cutter on raw copper or lead.
