Anyone with an Uber-weapon may as well take it as an Aspect also. That way they may rake in the FATE points when these things happen.

it would be kinda funny to let a player design "the spear of lugh" or "thor's hammer" and let them find out that it is stashed away in some far away nevernever stronghold... you could build a campaign around it...

void:
Now you guys are getting it. :D

luminos:
Item of Power: Sword-Chucks
It is what it is:  It is sword-chucks, which makes it a weapon: 4 right off the bat
Indestructible:  Double indestructible if placed inside an armoire of invincibility
Glorious Chainsaw Method: Let your swords become like things unto chainsaws
But, where would you grip it?:  Use your belief in the awesomeness of the sword-chucks to deal mental stress equal to your conviction to all sentient beings at the start of every scene


It still needs a few powers to get up to -9 refresh cost, but its a start.

And since you're a one-trick pony, it won't be hard for someone of sufficient determination to do so.

There's a classic story from Cyberpunk days of old. The guy who builds an incredibly lethal, incredibly fast character -- minmaxer extraordinaire. So the first fight rolls around, he gets initiative, and he pops up from behind cover and goes to town -- wastes a couple opponents in the first shot.

Then the rest of them get to go, and, well, this here dude is the primary target. He, too, gets wasted -- in the first turn.

That's what I picture happening to the dude who shows up with all of his slots devoted to kicking ass.  One thinks he should also be putting some energy towards *covering* his own, too. :)
