In my opinion melee weapons should have the following properties:

Battleaxes: Highest DPS, slower than swords, faster then hammers, no extra knockback

Hammers: Same damage per swing as a battleaxe but slower, extra knockback

Swords: just generic standard

Axes: slightly faster than sword, slower than a dagger, same damage per swing as a dagger

Daggers: Lowest DPS, but fastest swing speed, maybe reduced knockback

Spears: they are intended as a ranged weapon, so they are like swords with less damage (trindent would be like an iron spear)
