Hmm. Just looking at it, seems to me the Blood Thorn has been nerfed rather too much. Damage 0 and strength not added??? It's not an athame, it's a stick of jello.

I can see damage 0; I could even see a negative damage on it (the ceremonial decorations, gold construction, etc) but not the bit about strength not being added. With a negative damage and strength, there would be very few commanders using it - some pretenders, giants, units that receive heroic strength; oh, and ones that could cast Astral Weapon of course. (Admittedly it would be okay against many independents for other commanders, but still relatively useless against late game commanders, summoned units, etc.)
