Blocking without a shield. (Perks?)

Quick question.
Does the block skill and the perks in the block tree apply to 2 handers?
Extra defense would be nice for a new character I'm planning.

I believe that any block perk that doesn't specifically mention a shield will work for any form of blocking.

I wonder about "shield wall" though. It says blocking is more effective, but doesn't mention a shield except in the title. I bet it works for 2H too, but don't want to waste a perk to find out.

Hmm, but the skill being in the form of a shield is kinda.. :confused:
Perhaps you could try it out, by adding some perk that's obvious, and seeing how much damage you take from the same mob. Wouldnt wanna invest a whole chuckload of perks for nothing would we :thumbsup:
