BK axe:
Dmg: 822-1140
Aim: 500
Crit rate: 7%
Atk rate: 1.5s

NPC lv 80 axe:
Dmg: 613-850
Aim: 272
Crit rate: 5%
Atk rate: 1.5s

Green lv 80 axe, your mileage may vary.

So the BK axe has almost twice the aim of the NPC axe, higher crit rate, and higher dmg. Good for pvp and high-evade mobs.

I suppose it depends on what you look for in your equips. BK's worth it if you're a DD or you are willing to sacrifice an axe with stats. Str and dex ultimately work toward dmg and aim, so I think it would be fine to pick a BK over an axe with those stats. It might be possible that, say a str +40 axe could come close to matching the dmg of a BK, but I'm pretty sure the amount of dex needed to match the BK's aim exceeds +40. Not to mention the increased crit rate...

The only other reason that might be possible for not choosing a BK is if you absolutely insist that your axe have end or spr. But I'm an end junkie and I've already decided to use BK over a high-end 80 axe, just because the good things about it outweigh the fact that it has no stats. So I personally think BK is better.
