Sickle, it's so unused you forgot to mention it. Some people will still use Kukri, like those EQ diehards. I've used throwing axes for a few of my dwarves.
Light Flail is kind of fringe also.

I use the daggers in NWN for the rogue. They seem to compensate for the shortcomming of any good short swords.

I don´t know, I found at least one Kukri that was quite powerful. I think it´s called Starlight, and requires lvl 15. Quite powerful for a small weapon, and quite nice as an off-hand weapon for my Ranger/Rogue.

darts. gotta be darts. i HATE them. useless things. i was running my ranger around chunking +3 darts at a pair of ogres one time for fun. i think i managed to expend all 30 i had and did about that, if even, in damage. then, darts finished, i just wandered over to the poor critters who had chased me all that time and beat them senseless with one hit from the trusty long sword/short sword combo. i also never managed to find much use for the bastard sword as a two hand does more damage anyway.

The problem is that a part of the weapons are copied from the DnD player handbook in which they fulfill more important roles in terms of roleplaying. For example: a ninja style rogue/monk in our group constantly uses darts and shuriken for poisoning enemies.

What about heavy flail? Anyone use that? It looks pretty cool in combat but it has worse stats than the greataxe, greatsword and halberd.
Also: morningstars. Anyone use them? I was quite dissapointed to find that I couldn't equip one in my off-hand for some reason. I thought that a character with a morningstar in each hand would be pretty cool.
"Dire" weapons are actually pretty cool to fight with. I had a monk who used the dire sword and dire mace, in an attempt to make my character less uber. Turns out a monk with a two handed weapon still kicks in combat, which looks pretty impressive.

Actually I use morningstars for my cleric, I'm hardly able to use any other weapon.
