Both are useful. A 2hander will be your best damage output from L20 to the end, a 1hander w/ shield will be needed to bash interrupt casters until/unless you get your epic.
Relatively early on you should be able to scrape up enough for a Baton of Faith which you'll want at L20. It's a 30/40 2hb for paladin or monk, and it's heavy for a monk weapon so undesired by them. It's incredibly cheap, loot saturation plus small paladin population have it around 100pp these days.
