Welcome Randall!

I'd say it depends on the number of swings. If you click on the sword&shield button in the inventory screen you'll see how many attacks/swings you have. Then you can check that value for different constellations (2 axes, 2handed or even 1 axe&thieves buckler [+ 10 speed is good for bonus attacks])

High initiative is good for many swings, so that most axes get penalized (less swings since -# inititative). It might be worthwhile to think about learning sword skill, since the best weapons in the game won't be found in the axes department. But if you'd rather stick to axes, you won't get many offhand axes.

Training mace&flail or dagger would therefor be another option if you want to go dual.
