Dark magic especially has a world of possibilities. You could imbue a hex into the sword to afflict anyone you strike with it... or alternately, just cause anyone touching it intense pain. It's hard to ignore an impulse like that, so if you were in a fight, it'd certainly cause your opponent some problems.
Alternatively, get someone with magic you don't have to enchant the sword. Make the sword invisible under a glamour with light magic, maybe? That'd make dodging or parrying annoying.
...Am I thinking too practical? Everyone else seems to have pretty fantastical ideas compared to me.
