Welcome to the board, Blubal!!!
Having never killed King Freyedies I have never taken his hammer and given it a try. Have you tried equipping something into the left weapon slot after you've equipped the hammer into the right? Have you checked your character's stats before and after equipping the hammer to see if there are any changes happening which might account for the lesser damage?
Hopefully someone who has used the hammer will come along and solve the mystery for you!
