Well I'm using the merciless gladiator swords currently since they are among the better, and easily acquired, raiding swords in the game. Tonight however, Akil'zon's Talonblade (
http://www.wowhead.com/?item=33214
) dropped in ZA and absolutely no one needed it. Since it was pretty close to Merciless Gladiator (
http://www.wowhead.com/?item=32027
) and I wasn't sure what to use, I decided to get it and bring this question to the ol' reliable wowhead rogue forums =D. For raiding, which is better?
Note: I don't want to go Talonblade just because it is not a welfare epic item and nearly every rogue and their mom has S2 swords, I just want to know what gives a better amount of a damage with stats and base DPS put into effect.

You could always try a spreadsheet. Tailor it to what you want and you'll be on your way.

OK, one thing to remember IF a mob PARRIES ur attack, it automatically attacks the tank AGAIN
SO, hit rating is very important in a raid. Also, the rogue has weapon expertise, which improves hit ratings, etc. This will probably play a big part in future stages of the game.
i would chose talonblade for raiding.
the merciless IS tailor made for pvp any way

S2 > Talonblade
Expertise reduces chance to be parried, not hit rating.
And as stated, you shouldn't be attacking from the front.
