I don't really get the point of your question then.
If you just want to play smf a bit for fun, weapon choise doesn't really matter (I personally do not feel much difference between Nok/HoM and 2xHoMs, it's really minor).
If you want to maximize dps, then (speaking of fury) TG is significantly better (I would spec SMF for Spine only. That's what I usually do now, when my guild decided to start clearing DS with no buff).
There is a difference between doing something because you can and doing it right. I know SMF is behind TG (and fury behind arms) but although it isn't the best specc per se, I still try to optimise my gear (creating my mastery set is the only reason for me to log in between raids atm).
Playing a sub-optimal spec doesn't mean that someone doesn't care about doing as good as they possibly could in that spec.
In ICC I often played my rogue as Sub for farm encounters but I still optimized my gear for that spec. I've done the same for my mage as Frost and a bunch of other specs on other classes too.
Hoping someone here can help me out, my warrior is an alt for me so im not up on whats the best and why. Tonight in normal DS i got No'Kaled cause it was gonna go to waste so i figured why not. For my furry spec ive had dual Treachery's bite (the 378 for HoT) and i was wondering how much better (if at all) No'kaled is and if so which hand i should use it in?
Thinking about going TG fury after the patch, I guess you would want your strongest weapon in the offhand because of wildstrike? I have a heroic gurth, heroic slicer and normal gurth to my disposal, so something like normal gurth mainhand and hc gurth offhand?
Heya fellow warriors, got a little question, now that 5.0.4 is out..
I'm a human fury warrior, sitting on a NM Gurth und NM Ataraxis.
Now after Mastery got better, I'm not sure if the double HC Specimen in my bag would be the better choice, even if I had to reforge into expertise a bit.
I'm not really an expert about the math, so I would really appreciate it, if somone could help me out.

something i've been trying to find but not having any luck:
i've got H souldrinker and H HoM and trying to decide which hands to put them in. As an orc, would only capping MH with my HoM be the best option, or is wild strike able to be dodged and therefore necessary to cap with HoM and just have excess expertise on my mh
Hi Driannaa!
You would want to use NM Gurth in MH, HC Specimen in OH. Offhand Expertise does not matter, only mainhand. Even pre-5.0 patch, H Specimen in OH would of been better than N Ataraxis
Patch makes an equivalent ESS > Specimen though for the OH choice for Fury..
(This post can also be applied to Darklon's question).

Ive been using HoM hc in main and normal Souldrinker oh, should i swap them around?
Was wondering why this is still stickied.. Isn't this talk pretty much "over"?
I mean, it could be updated for MOP, but it doesn't seem OP is going to..
We could use a new thread, badly, seeing all the "should I be fury or arms, TG or SMF" threads that have been cropping up lately like mushrooms.
Personally I like TG for the mix of cleave, single target DPS, looking like a badass and extra HP that could save your life, but that's just me. I am getting rather sick of running chardev over and over to make different sets.
