I'd take the Orthos. Much faster wind-up and animation, meaning you can throw out a lot of charge attacks in a short period of time. On the other hand, you'll be giving up an AoE jump attack knockdown that the Scindo has as well as the "super armor" that Scindo heavy swings give. Also, the Scindo charge-swings in a 360-degree oval arc oriented in front of you, whereas the Orthos hits in a 270-degree arc, ignoring the back-right quadrant.
