I use a Greater Highlander blade equipped on Jora since it is norn-like. It's also rather large and dyes well.

Mallyx's Edge is suboptimal for PvE since +5 armor is better than +30HP.

It's better than the other options though. Deldrimor sword/Reaper's Blade/Mobrin's Blade = sundering (useless), Victo's Blade/Brambel Blade = vamp which is bad on a hero because they can't weaponswap, Cruel is useless since Deepwound on sword doesn't need lengthening (by the time you get deepwound on a target with 7 adrenaline it is close to dead), Mallyx's Reaver isn't a sword.

Only Furious is useful in PVE?

If you're just looking for a weapon that "looks cool" on Jora, any of the Reavers (Mallyx, Stygian, etc.) look awesome on her since they're so huge.

Although if I can make a small suggestion: have you ever considered a hammer? I quite like my Jora as an Earthshaker... it may not be the greatest build ever, but it's fun watching her death's charge into a mob and start swinging her giant hammer. I gave her a Desolation Maul and it looks SICK on her.

The reaver is cool, but I like Edge better. I'm mostly asking for good damage dealt for Jora.

Personally, I like Jora running around with a big-arse hammer and the Earth Shaker build.

Nah, I don't like girls wield hammer, it'll be good to see Devonna wield a sword.

I find that Hero's don't use sword builds as effectively as hammer or scythe builds. Earth shaker is pretty amazing on a hero.
