Question about Zerker perks and weapons

So, i am wondering:
Berzerk has perks adding attack speed, damage to perk weapons, and damage to light/powerful attacks.
Without doubts, all this applies to melee weapons (crowel, sword, and pulverizer). What about Vlad gun and Eviscerator?

Does attack speed work on Evicerator alt fire (fuel-powered saw)?
Does light/hard attack bonuses affect those 2 weapons?

Thanks for responses... i am really confused about Zerks perks and weapons.
 
All Berserker's attack speed bonuses affect duration of weapon animation and do not affect weapons that has fixed ROF like Nailgun or Eviscerator. Only stab attack of Eviscerator receive speed boost. Since it affect speed through time correctly to say that 25% attack speed bonus actually meants 25% less time to play the animation, so the actual speed increment is 1 / 0.75 = 33.3%. Katana also receive speed boost.

Butcher: All on-perk weapons or damage types do 20% more damage.

Parry: All on-perk weapons or damage types do 35% more damage. BTW bugged, active all the time when skill selected, no need to parry. Reported here.

Smash: All on-perk weapons or damage types do 25% more damage when hit the head. Hard attacks of all melee weapons do 50% more damage (including Katana, excluding Eviscerator).

Massacre: All on-perk weapons or damage types do 20% more damage (not only light attacks, if fact ModifyLightAttackDamage not even called anywhere). Duration of attack animation of all melee weapons decreased by 20% (including Katana, excluding Eviscerator).
