Damage from FT scales with weapon speed and the damage from Lava Lash is dependent on the amount of damage the FT puts out. So you have to take into account the overall weapon DPS, it's speed (how many times you swing it in a minute) and multiply that by the FT scaling and add in the number of swings you can use on Lava Lash (lots of math, trust me) you end up with an edge out in overall damage with a slower OH. Go over to Elitist Jerks and do a search on Fire Knives for a different playstyle using FT/FT on two fast weapons. It's pretty interesting, albeit, not for everyone.

I am still leveling(76) but, I thought a fast OH weapon was fine. Should I be looking for a slow OH instead?

I'd definitely drop stats on bracers from the list, it's quite a bit worse then expertise for a shaman and expertise is cheaper mats. For gloves the Agi and Crit choices aren't very good ones. Hit, Exp, and the AP buffs will offer you far more dps for your mats. As for weapons just like you said with accuracy agility isn't a good option anymore as Potency outweighs it in terms of dps for a cheap enchant. And 65 ap on a weapon is a waste of mats as well since you might as well save a little more for berserking or sell them for mongoose then waste abyssal shards on 65 ap as bother are far better.
