    I have always liked Mehrune's Razor. To have a chance to instantly kill anyone is very helpful at Master difficulty. Not to mention infinite charges... But now I'm really enjoying Kahvozein's Fang. I got it in Volskygge with alteration skill at 15  Since it's a quest item I was stuck with it and decided to make use of it. It's very good looking, and I compensate low damage with alchemy. The cool thing is that you get dragon heartscale from every slain dragon which are NOT quest items and can be sold to general merchants. I'm making a lot of money selling those  And since Unofficial Skyrim Patch makes it possible to upgrade I think I'll use it afer finishing the Alteration Ritual Spell too.

    I see no Ebony Blade or Chillrend. Those are some decent unique weapons. I would personally opt for Dawnbreaker, just because I had so much fun using it as a vampire.

    Chillrend, simply due to the fact it is the only icy blue glass item in the game. Plus I love the look. :3

    Skyler I think it is the only unique Glass sword in the game. Im not sure how to explain this but I think it is the only unique looking weapon in the game that resembles most non-unique weapons (ie steel, orcish, dragonbone.)

    The Pale Blade.

    Any demonic weapon that rests on a pedestal at the bottom of a haunted crypt is going to get me sniffing...

    Great frost/stamina damage, good charges.

    Boosted with augmented frost 2/2 it puts the fear of god in anything upto level 24.

    Just have it equipped in your right hand when looting them :) There is something cool about killing dragons with ritual dagger

    Both The Pale Blade and Mace of Molag Bal are epic, + @Mason I didn't know that the Augumented Elemental Perks work with Enchanted Weapons, too cool!

    @Brynjolf What does Horkersbane do? I can't find absolutely anything about it on the internet, even on UESP and SkyrimWiki?! How come, is it that unheard of?

    Some poor sucker decided that the Vile's horrid mask was better. Damn you Champion of Cyrodiil!

    I'm with Ra'jirr on that one and usually leave it on the pedestal

    I wouldn't call it an early game necklace. After all you have to clear three crypts just to get all three fragments and fight all three bosses again to forge the amulet!

    Drainheart sword, Drainspell bow and Drainblood battleaxe. Unlike the Ghostblade, you can mount them on a weapons rack/display and take them out without it vanishing on you.

    I love miraak's staff since I'm a sucker for stagger however my favourite would either be zephyr or auriels bow since I'm typically an archer. I typically rush to grab zephyr, just so used to using it.
