This (i hope) will show you how to modify specific stats on weapons using the same method as making quivers have more arrows. Match up the #'s in ()'s to find what number to change in the item code. (note: The 0's stand in for each number group, there are usually 17-18 groups per item.) P.S I hope I didn't steal what you were going to do but if I did look at it this way, now you don't have to do it
MELEE WEAPON STATS MODIFICATIONS

Forth to last # controls Weapon Reach.(3)
Sixth to last # Controls Weapon Speed.(4)
Thirteenth to last # Controls Weapon Weight.(5)
Seventeenth to last # (you can easily tell which ones these are because they are always in groups of seven)is a bit tricky and controls special things like, bonus against shields, cannot use on horseback, and whether it’s a one/two handed or polearm weapon. (still trying to figure out how exactly the #’s work.)(6)
All the #’s That haven’t been pointed out either do nothing that effect the stats or make the game crash.
