Unless you have other units that would be better for a blade weapon raid, the correct answer is: stop it. The multiple weapon system should be coming out... some day.

Otherwise:

Defender's sword is absolutely the best choice. As was said, damage reduction from weapons calculates after abilities, so it will reduce damage incredibly well when a 50% damage reduction ability is in play. Defenders sword is one of the best weapons in the game.

Claymore is highly overrated (probably mostly by people who don't understand how damage is calculated). Rapid attack units are what I'd toss it on. Definitely not Hannya, though.

Edged Avarice is solid, but doesn't really do anything amazing and you're usually better off specializing a bit... I just put them on gold farmers myself, but they really are decent weapons. They're also not bad as an interem weapon, though they do take some time to craft.

Jiraiya is okay, but... it's a crit weapon and crit is generally extremely weak compared to the other stats. It takes 4+ points in a weapons crit stat to equal 1 point in attack for most units. Also it's not calculated in most skills (though Hannya would be an exception).

Soul Siphon should really never be considered for a warrior. It does not leech health on crits, which a warrior with it will be doing 45% of the time (if not more). While Hannya could make more use of it than most warriors, it's still pretty wasted. If you were in fact talking about Freya... that would potentially be interesting.
