Like say the force required to pull (half) your (adamantium laced) body weight up the side of a mountain, with no help from your legs?

I have absolutely no idea what you are trying to say, but ok, let's go with what I guess you are implying. Let's make that walking stick out of adamantium and sharpen it to a razor point. If it ain't no thang, I'm sure you won't mind if he accidentally jabs it into your foot and leans on it with half of his body weight then? Or would it go right through your fucking shoe and foot and probably into the sidewalk below it?
I realize this is a dumb argument, but that's what we do here, right? I mean, we can just chalk it up to Wolverine being able to do anything he wants, and I really can't argue that. It just reminds me of the terrible, terrible scene in the movie where he spins around a crown spike of the Statue of Liberty with just his claws. Instead of just slicing the fucking spike off and continuing to fly off into the distance.

No, way more force than that. Not sure why you're defending your argument like you're the rational one here when you have no idea what you're talking about.
Acting like going through someone's shoe and going through solid rock are the same thing is mind bottlingly stupid

Ok, if I'm the lone voice of reason in a sea of gobbling turkeys here then I'll admit that maybe I'm actually the turkey. I even said I knew it was a stupid argument.
Now let's talk about how he gets enough leverage to punch with this massive amount of force it apparently requires to penetrate rock! While he's reaching literally as high as he possibly can!
I kid. But you have to at least admit *parts* of the scenario are "comic book hand-waving." I'll concede defeat though.

Before you were implying it would fall through to the planet core or something because adamantium cuts through everything.

That's overstating it just a bit, I think, but I'm not gonna Tanoomba the meaning of words here, so fair enough. I was wrong.
The blades cutting through the rock due to his weight would imply that his weight would be spread across the entire blade, whereas it's more likely to be placed closest to his hand. The hand would be providing enough force against the rock to keep the blade from cutting straight down, and the top sides of the blades are supposed to not be edged AFAIK, so they wouldn't cut upwards.

Ack-chtually...
Wolverine’s claws frequently morphed back and forth between blades and claws in the comics depending on who was drawing, the angle they were being drawn at, and what Logan was doing at the time.
In the movies it would appear that coating his natural bone claws not only applied a micro sharp razors edge onto the exact same side on each claw but made them narrower as well.
More magical than Harry Potter.

Bone-shaped claws didn't exist until after Magneto had de-adamantium'd him during Fatal Attraction. They were always knives previously. That's why people were so shocked that he could still have claws after being stripped of metal.
And then this is him popping his claws for the first time after that happened.

I'd say Jackman was about as badass as he could be while being directed by a mincing boy-hungry pedophile.
