Well when they fought in the comics all Wolverine could do was give Thor flesh wounds... though Thor did mention that if Wolverine keeps at it he'll eventually be able to seriously injure Thor. Not sure how long that would take though. Thor took some pretty nasty shots in that comic, including a surprise double-stab attack to the back... and all he got were flesh wounds.
Now on to the movie versions. I haven't seen anything yet to convince me that movie Thor's durability is way lower than his normal 616 counterpart.
OTOH, movie Wolverine has almost none of the speed and fighting skill that comic Wolverine has.
Wolverine better hope that his claws can incapacitate Thor, otherwise Thor will put him in a choke hold and choke the life out of him. Because when you combine Thor's superior strength with his superior h2h skill, that means he can pretty much toy with Wolverine in a h2h match unless Logan can insta-kill Thor with a claw stab/slash.

If Logan fights it smart, he can shred Thor up
Thor may not "seem" fast but don't let his size and style fool you. He was easily ducking/dodging Hulk's and IM's blows and he had no trouble beating the SHIELD agents to the punch. Heck he was even able to catch IM's punch in his hand. That's not an easy feat to replicate.
Wolverine on the other hand almost always gets beat to the punch by his opponents. He relies on his healing factor to keep him in the fight and on his claws for a one shot killer blow.
And Wolverine's healing factor doesn't stop him from getting knocked out, which is what will happen if Thor hits him with a direct punch.
And like I said, we're not sure how much damage Wolverine's claws will do to Thor. I'm convinced it's going to take a lot swings before Wolverine starts doing serious damage.

Good points. I was just curious as to how damaging wolverines claws could be. I guess you're right 😬
