I'm also a great fan of Berserk but only of the anime which sounds by far more "historical" to me...
That's probably why I asked Jiri Krondak (via Reve d'Acier an great medieval store located in Paris ) to recreate for me to most famous Berserker's sword....
It has take us 2 month to work on the design of the sword... the real difficulty was to forge a functional and well balanced blade ( As well balanced as possible I mean.... ) But we finally manage to do so using an "historically correct" reproduction of a two handed Katzbalger as a model.
There is the result... enjoy

My first try with the sword.... still in Reve D'Acier store ( notice the devotion of those noble scientists who takes considerables risk for the greatest glory of Reve d'Acier and Medieval Swordsmanship.... especially the one who is behind the shield )Fuir est pire qu'un crime, c'est une faute...
Once again thanks for all the info everybody. I have taken notes and will definitely be considering some of these weapons in my creative process. I also ordered a few of the books mentioned, they are on the way as we speak.
@ The Berserk fans: I have been reading the English Manga published by Dark Horse. They/ I are only up to book 13 so far, so please try not to let out any spoilers lol.
