Bearshirt

Thought I'd try to "hide" the helmet a bit, by pulling the bearskin head over the top...gives it a strange look for sure.

His (Odin's) men rushed forward without armor, were as mad as dogs or wolves, bit their shields, and were as strong as bears or wild bulls, and killed people at a blow, but neither fire nor iron told upon themselves.

Hey, Skallagrimm, could you make a video were the berserkr uses a spear, it's a traditional weapon for one... I saw an ancient bronze plate found at oland where the berserkr uses a spear... Just a suggestion. Thanks,

Norioronin

@The111DooD : Well yes they did use a variety of weapons, but the point of a berserk was to scare the enemy like hell, and a large axe was the perfect way to do that. I'm sure it did depends on the berserks particular likings though.

@Halofreakanoid I think by popular opinion it is. But I'm also fairly sure that there are drawings/pieces of art from the time period that show Berserkers that all used spears.

@norioronin : I was fairly certain that the traditional weapons for a berserk was a two handed axe.
