the source is it doesnt say you can apply things. if it doesnt call out that you can, then you cant.

NV has it nailed.

You'll need to spend your own arcane pool to give your blade keen etc.

In a mid-low to low magic campaign Bladebound is Da Bomb! In Average campaigns everyone has at least a +1 weapon by 5th level so its so so.

In standard campaigns it's still "Da Bomb!" as you then don't have to pay to upgrade your primary weapon, an expenditure that swiftly becomes expensive due to the exponential formula used to determine weapon cost. Thousands and thousands of gold available for use on armor, scrolls, wonderous items, etc. well worth a single Magus Arcana and a few Arcane Pool points (which are easily recouped through feats)
