Well pre-kunark if you don’t plan to raid Sky...the best weapon a monk can get is a summoned mod rod. (Or a blues two handed hammer but it has some serious weight)

A monks fist become slightly better than a mod rod by level 35 (11/33 vs 8/26), even factoring damage bonus:
(8+3)/26 vs (11+3)/33
I guess if you see a level 44+ mage where you happen to be before 35, sure a mod rod is a bit of a boost.
Monk weapon options all seem worst than fist if you are aquiring the item naturally (except a cracked staff until level 10).
My green monk strategy is: tailor my own cured silk armor and bare fist my way to 50, picking up a few specific upgrades here and there. I'll get some netted/mesh hands/feet early to have magical attacks. This seems to be optimal (no wasting any time trying to get a slightly better weapon that your fists quickly outgrow, no heavy armor/weapons makes it easier on the weight cap)
Am i missing anything major?
