"Fenrirs grasp"
Gonna be that person and be super nerdy and correct the usage of the runes on the sword.
Just so you know, Elder Futhark isnt really an alphabet for.. say writing? It's more for invoking the magic properties of the runes and are usually carved in weapons for, an example, having the favor of the gods in battle. You don't use the "letters" to spell words out, you would use each symbol for their own meaning.
F- Fehu means: cattle, wealth, prosperity etc.
E- Ehwaz means: loyalty
N- Nauthiz means: trouble, necessity, and a must to overcome hard work.
So on and so forth. When invoking the runes, some "lines" are doubled or even tripled up to invoke a more powerful spell.
T or Teiwaz or Tyr for example is a god. His symbol is an arrow pointing up. There is a legend in the eddas if you invoke Tyrs name three times on your weapon, you will have a good fight. For either victory or an honorable death. To do that you would add two more " ^ " to the rune (it should look like a stick figure pine tree). So the runes are basically a garbled mess of incantations on his sword.
