Would it be better to use a falcata and shield, elven curved blade or some other weapon? Aiming for a front line combatant/caster.
Don't you need both hands free to cast spells?

Cleric = more up front damage. Only a few fights and he is out of abilitys and spells.
Oracle = more staying power. 1-3 fighters after the cleric is out the oracle is still going strong.
There both good. I like the oracle better if your in a melee focused group. Cleric if your in a casting group.
Weapon and shield if you have a caster group.
Reach weapon if you have a melee group. Reach weapon will alow you to fight with the group. And support the group with spells as needed. With out needing concentration checks.
If your going to spend a feet on a exotic weapon as a oracle of battle. Make sure it hase the trip ability. So Khopehs is better then Falcata. With manuver mastery and a trip weapon your average Trip CMB should be close to 20 at level 7.
Does a light shield inhibit casting and can't a caster take a hand off a 2 gander to cast as a free action?
