Use flash of light to hold agro, it's much better than taunt.
A baton of faith is a godly weapon for under 300pp, the ratio is way better than the mitigation a shield would have, but if you're adamant about being as tank as you can be, get a sword of skyfire for 100-200pp and then eventually sword of the mourning. (So to answer your question, 2hb, 1hs... 1hb for some neat but expensive paladin maces comes in handy later)
