I found a combine two handed sword works well. Available from vendor for 105pp, resells for 95. So real cost is just 10pp!
Suitable for kite rangers as it's delay means if a mob catches up with you, you get a swing, cast snare or root, swing again and disengage for more bow work.
The shortsword of Morrin isn't too bad either. I believe it leads on to a second quest for the orc impaler.
Another nice self found combo for your level is the Iksar Berserker Club (camped in Kurns) and the Polished Granite Tomahawk (from Highpass). Primary and secondary hand respectively. The IBC is a pretty good cash camp too; lots of ruined scale and fine steel drops from the place holders (sneak vendor with the merchants outside cabalis, be wary of the pathing guards. You can bind outside Kaesora in Field of Bone to aid with corpse recovery).
Forest Hammer is easily found in Warslik's Woods, but is not magic. Bone Bladed Claymore from befallen might be worth a look. If you are really serious about bow kite and just want to pad stats with primary/secondary you might be able to use a Bloodforge hammer (have a 49+ wizard help you with ports to / from qeynos) if you don't have anything else. Shiny Brass shield is a better resist pad from Crushbone though. As a bow kiter you don't want to be stuck by roots, so that magic resist can be really handy.
