Okay, it seems there where a couple of mistakes in the list that I posted:

Artifact damage for Cleaver should be 1-12 not 1-2.
Thanks for Pat Rankin for the correction.

And Snickersnee's enchantement damage was calculated incorrect.

And also Stormy can't drain levels from undead

Here's the right values:
                        blessed +3 Cleaver
                        ------------------
vs. small monster       vs. large monster       vs. undead or demon
  e.g. scorpion           e.g. minotaur           e.g. wraith
 
1-6  (axe)              1-4                     1-4

4-9  (+3)               4-7                     5-11
5-21 (artifact)         5-19                    6-23

                        -----------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

14   (average)          13.5                    11.5
   

Also when we add Cleaver and Snickersnee to "super-weapons":

About super-weapons vs. large monsters
 
+8 Excalibur            10-30   average:        20

+8 Snickersnee		10-28			19

Hope it's right this time
