Our debut release, The Gotham City Edge™, sold out in less than 4 weeks, and will never be released again. Given the limited 750-piece production and extreme demand, we cannot guarantee availability after pre-orders close. This is your best opportunity to secure one.

Upon pre-order, we'll keep you updated on the status of your piece with regular check-ins and detailed shipping information. We guarantee you, it’ll be worth the wait.

Pre-orders are estimated to ship no earlier than December 2025. Each piece undergoes final hand-finishing and meticulous quality control, so we prioritize quality over speed.

Only 750 Edge of Solitude pieces will ever be made. This is a one-time-only production run. When they're gone, that's it— no redos, no second editions, no exceptions.

This is the artisan approach to collectibles that defines everything we do at StudioForge™. We specialize in ultra-limited editions, creating some of the world's most unique collectibles. By avoiding mass production, we ensure not just the highest quality, but extreme rarity. As an owner of a StudioForge™ piece, you join an exclusive club.

While designed primarily as a collector's displayable, Edge of Solitude can be used in the kitchen. It was forged from BD1N-VX™ Hyper Steel and professionally sharpened with D3™ and LionShield™ treatments. However, most collectors choose to keep their Bladed Displayables™ in unused condition to preserve both value and quality.

For Display: Keep in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight. The magnetic Fortress of Solitude™ stand provides optimal positioning and protection for long-term preservation.

For Kitchen Use: We recommend against using it in the kitchen to preserve value, but ultimately the choice is yours. If you choose to use it, hand wash only with mild soap and dry immediately. Never use a dishwasher, as it can damage the specialized materials. Always return to the display stand when not in use to maintain the blade's pristine condition and protect your investment.

Why is there a $39 shipping fee?

Due to their rare nature and extremely high value, every StudioForge™ piece is shipped from our Toronto vault, exclusively reserved for StudioForge™ items, directly to your door. We use a white-glove service including custom protective packaging, fully-insured transit, and signature confirmation upon arrival. The $39 shipping fee* allows us to partially absorb these costs, ensuring your piece arrives in pristine condition. 

If you choose to pay in full, we waive this fee and include free shipping. 

Deposit Structure

Why do I need to pay a deposit?

To secure your pre-order, a non-refundable deposit of 20% is collected upfront. This guarantees your item is reserved. Here’s how it works:

• 20% deposit locks in your collectible.
• Remaining balance will be automatically collected when your item ships.
• Your item is reserved exclusively for you during this time.

What if I cannot pay the remaining balance?

The remaining balance due will be automatically collected when your item ships. We will let you know in advance that your StudioForge™ item is due to be shipped. In case of payment failure, we will contact you via e-mail to process the remaining balance within a set deadline (from your original account or a new payment method). We will attempt to collect payment up to two more times within this timeframe. Should the payment still not be processed or if there is a failure to respond, the order will be cancelled and the deposit forfeited.

What if I want to cancel my order?

Orders can be cancelled for up to 24 hours after purchase. Your deposit is non-refundable. To cancel your order, please email info@dalstrong.com with your Order ID.
