The current damage output is perfect for their tiers. You're just not considering the following factors which have been confirmed by people like me, IceShifter, Mr Musturd and the like.
1. Nova knives have double strike.
2. The base damage you see in the stats is the un-charged damage (quick slash attacks) per blade.
3. Minmatar Scout suits have a bonus to nova knife damage built into them.
4. Nova Knife Proficiency increases the damage.
5. Sidearm Damage modules increase the damage output.
Currently, a pair of Ishukone Nova Knives can effectively deal at least 1,200 HP damage when fully charged and everything maxed out with modules and skills on a Minmatar Scout suit.
There. You're dream of 1k HP damage has been around for a very long time.
EDIT: A maxed out Ishukone is enough to scare off even the most hardcore of heavies. But on a Gal scout... Anyways, the basic nova knives are useless. Period. Also, I can't even 2 hit KO some basic frames. That's why they need this. Besides, it takes skill of the stupidity of your opponent to get close and knife them moving or not.
They wouldn't be stupid if you snuck up behind them like you should. I use the ZN-28 (adv) on my adv Minnie and I can kill a proto sentinel in 2 slashes. Anyone in an adv or standard suit with their backs turned is most likely always a 1 slash kill.

Usually they hear me even though I charge in the air, and they run and side peddle away so I can only get 1-3 hits in. Can't you just admit that the charge time + the damage on the basic nova knives is absurd?
Honestly, who uses the standard?
