which weapon for zealot?

Ok, so it turns out that I had forgotten completely about axes for zealots, don't ask me why, but I did, so hiding amongst my stash I have this little gem:
Butcher's Pupil
Cleaver
One-Hand Damage: 59 to 146
Required Strength: 68
Required Level: 39
Axe Class - Fast Attack Speed
Indestructible
Item Version: 1.10 Expansion
Item Level: 49
Fingerprint: 0xb82c4173
+191% Enhanced Damage
+30 to Minimum Damage
+50 to Maximum Damage
30% Increased Attack Speed
25% Chance of Open Wounds
35% Deadly Strike
Indestructible

and yesterday, I found this:
Djinn Slayer
Ataghan
One-Hand Damage: 85 to 151
Durability: 19 of 22
Required Dexterity: 95
Required Strength: 138
Required Level: 65
Sword Class - Fast Attack Speed
Item Version: 1.10 Expansion
Item Level: 76
Fingerprint: 0x21623100
+229% Enhanced Damage
Adds 250-500 fire damage
6% Mana stolen per hit
136% Damage to Demons
+239 to Attack Rating against Demons
+6 Lightning Absorb
Socketed (1: 0 used)

I like the absorb and fire dmg of the second, but I don't know what to socket in it (highest rune is lem, so...was considering either an amn or an eth).

the axe I like for the open wounds and deadly strike (and lack of repairs). so I'm kind of indecisive at this point- I'll probably try out both, but was wondering if anyone had a preference, and why, and if anyone had a recommendation on socketing within my means (use and eth/amn, or wait and rune hunt for something better- I have a sorc in hell currently that might find somethng interesting),

oh yeah- for consideration close to end-game fana zealot with a few pts. in vengence for PIs, and his other gear is: tiamat's, gore riders boots 10/15/15 OW/CB/DS, Willhelm's Pride belt for LL, safety grand crown, blood gloves with 10% CB, Tooth Row armor with 40% OW, and socketed with 21% EDmg, Raven frost, rare dual leach ring, and ammy with +2 offensive skills. and a backpack full of elemental dmg charms... :thumbsup:

thanks all!
