It seems a bit too powerful. This is significantly more powerful than the black razor and a grandmaster in katanas would toss away the celestial fury to wield it if they were only barely proficient in two-handed swords. Perhaps if you had something that discouraged it from being used all the time, like if it reduced strength or constitution by a few points, or had a chance on a hit the wielder would become diseased, or blinded. Then players would only use it on the tougher encounters. If indeed it eminates evil then even an evil wielder would tremble holding it in his hands.
I also note the speed factor of 1 is another thing to reconsider. Someone with just one point on two-handed weapon style will get an additional attack. While one handed weapons can have their speeds reduced by 1 at the most through weapon mastery, two handed wielders can reduce speeds by up to 5. When a weapon skill drops to 0 and each point below you get either an additional 1/2 or 1 attack. This might add an extra 2 (or 4, not sure exactly) attacks on top of the extra attack, or at least 5 attacks per round--far too many for anyone wielding a two hander. The speed should be 5 or higher.
