The two best 1-handed weapons are (IMHO):

Axe of the Unyielding+5

1d8+5
10% chance of instant kill (no save) with each hit
+1 AC
Regenerate 3hp/round

AND

Foebane+5 (bastard sword)

2d4+5, +6 vs undead and other extra-planar creatures
+1 to all saving throws
Each hit casts Larlach's Minor Drain (1st level mage spell) on target
(The value of this does not become apparant until you weild Foebane thru a long battle. I've had Keldorn up over 235hp due to this minor secondary ability of Foebane!!!)
