beautiful work Wes! Wish you had more runes running down the blade, the message looks a tad bit short :) Still, great work!

The Ulfhednar were a group of vikings who wore the pelts of wolves into battle, much like the Berserkers

Sword is gorgeous Wes. Pattern weld really sets it off and those specs... Perfect.
