I've done three versions of this, each different in price.
If this blade is used to coup de grace a target and it kills them (...obvious, no?) the enchantment on the blade takes a portion of the slain person and gives it to the wielder. The wielder is allowed to keep this feat until the next sundown/sunrise/noon (chosen by the person or thing that makes the blade at the time it is made).
You do not have to meet the prerequisites of the feat to be able to steal it and can use it without prerequisites. However, if the DM rules that a species or template-dependant prerequisite is demanded of the feat's description, he may rule that you take on traits from that species, as nessessary.
You may only steal one feat at a time and once a feat is stolen, no more can be taken by this sword until the feat taken goes away. To clarify, so long as you have the feat taken by this sword (even if somehow you've managed to keep it), the power of this sword no longer works, for you or for anyone.
You reroll if a feat is taken which you already have (except stackable ones).
There are 3 versions of this.
Version 1: This only works once, then the sword is an ordinary Masterwork Blade. +1 enhancement bonus to price.
Version 2: Has 10 charges (though still works only once a day). +3 enhancement when determining price.
Version 3: Has infinite charges...still works only once a day though. +5 enhancement to price.

And now, an application of this. The image for this is an example of how it could look and is at the top. It as done by an artist called Masda. Please support him by visiting his gallery. This is the Blade of the Saint (and will tie in to a prestige class I'll post up later) and was used by a legendary cleric of Oghma in times past. It's whereabouts are currently unknown...
It is a type 3 Soul Taking sword and so can take one feat a day, for so long as it is in working order.
