Nah, it's just plain physics. Just because object A is harder than object B, doesn't mean Object A can easily cut through B. You'd still need an amount of force behind the blow.
For example, a hardcover book can stop a knife thrust even if a knife blade is a lot harder than the book. A decent wooden staff can take multiple hits from a sharp sword before breaking.
People need to stop treating Wolverine's claws like they're lightsabers that easily cuts through everything like they're butter. Some objects have shown a good degree of resistance to them, both in movies and comics. The katanas were a good example. This is especially true when the object in question is actively moving, as it's a lot easier to cut through a braced, stationary object than a moving object.

In The Wolverine movie. First when fighting Shingen after he got his healing back, though Logan cut them later. Then in the village fight with Black Clan, Harada did it too.
Since then, Froth never accepted any other showing for Logan's cutting power, and keeps repeating that ad nauseum any time Wolverine's cutting power comes into an argument """''Logan's claws couldn't cut through a katana/Logan's claws were blocked by a katana'''""""
Wow. Obviously I got under your skin.
Anyway, I never questioned adamantium or its properties, I questioned Wolverine's strength and the power behind his blows. If you don't understand how the strength behind a cut affects just how well something can cut then there's no hope talking to you.
