The difference between paladin dagger attack speed and amazon dagger attack speed is listed as "fast" vs "very fast." IIRC this gives the zon a difference of -20 on attack speed.
With fanaticism and Zeal the speed difference is nulled, and even turned into the paladin's favor.
As for the 'isn't he better with a sword,' that's what I thought. Go try it and compare. :D
In my experience he kills much faster than any 1h sword. Oh, and if you still don't beleive it, just compare the dagger damage to another 1h'er. You'll find that the dagger is not that much lower than any top one hander. Then factor in all the CB and double damage (due to 100% deadly) and once again, the paladin will be on top.
It's interesting, and I encourage anyone to try it.
