A DD is someone who looks to maximize damage. So using a 1-hand is pretty unusual for DDers, because Axes are really where you want to go for damage. Despite having a faster attack speed, 1-handers lose to Axes for damage because of the Axe's much higher damage and the fact that Fighter's can pretty much skill-spam their plethora of skills without waiting for animation.
If you want to do lots of damage when you're not being hit, use the Axe. Bring the 1-hand/shield when you're tanking.
