Second way to build him is completely around his True Damage output. Throw nothing but tank items on him, and head straight for the WEAKEST champion in a team fight. They will throw everything at you "Because Olaf is Enemy of the State #1 every time", but you will still split that squishy in half.
Most people if ANY ever build Olaf as a tank, and use his Wreckless Swing as his only way of damaging. Let me tell you, it does work, it can even be more dangerous than a normal DPS build.
Oh god does it work. I have my own personal tanky DPS build. It still works to this day and I essentially stack HP with tanky items (banshee's, a sunfire, maybe warmog's, but always Frozen Mallet), reaching an awesome bulky state where no one can kill me if I have my team behind me and then BAM, Atma's. Olaf is a great tank cruncher after you've picked off all the carries.

Oh yay! I've been doing good with him still in ranked but any love on him is much welcomed by me.
As for sword of the divine, I've never tried it on him. Youmuu's Ghostblade is beast on him though, you might try that. :P

My DPSish build on him is:
Sword of the Divine
Berserkers Boots
Starks Fervor
Ghostblade
Brutilizer (It stacks with Ghostblade)
Bloodthirster
That gives maximum flat Armor Pen without the sacrifice of survivability through Lifesteal. I think I usually can bump 120ish Armor Pen with that build, if I use Ragnarok and Sword of the Divine Active. Since not many people stack Armor as it's less important than Magic Resist, you usually crush everyone.
I once activated all of my cooldowns (Ragnarok/ViciousStrikes/SwordofDivine) and threw an Undertow at Mundo and did 650 damage.
I don't know if it was a bug or not, but it zapped 1/3 of his health.

Meh, I don't notice. I jusut play him how I've always played him (I don't play him Rambo style like most people like to, I'm a very defensive player overall) and he still seems very strong to me, I don't jungle either so I have no input on that.
