So, how about making a magic item unique by the fact that it has no flavor or history because it's fresh off the forge? Maybe the +1 morningstar feels heavier when you swing it because it creates friction on the Weave that will smooth out if it's used a lot. Maybe the +1 flaming longsword's balance is two inches to the right of the hilt because the creator knew it was going to settle to the left over a period of six months. Maybe the shield of fire resistance has a small pocket of air trapped near the rim that expands and contracts in heat or cold. Anyone else have some ideas for quirks that brand new magic items could have?

As magic weapons go, it seems to be somewhat unremarkable, with the only clue as to the enchantments that have been woven into its fabric being the glowing seal stamped into the pommel."
