For early branded weapon: train a few skill levels?

I like to generally start with Polearms and during the first few floors, I often find a branded something to use temporarily (without investing any skills training in it).
But sometimes, that short use ends up being much longer like in my current game:
I found a +2 dagger of venom very early and I'm still using it as my primary in D:8 while at XL10.
Meanwhile, the Polearms skill is at 9.6 and I've invested nothing in Short Blades.
(The spear does see some use but mostly on Skeletons and to finish off something highly poisoned.)
Do some of you invest 1 or 2 skill levels in these temporary short use weapons once you start approaching D:8?
