A fine javelin (not a cutting weapon) may still do +1 damage, just not +2.

ITL 123 says polearms, hammers and maces (and others), in the opening sentence of the fine section, may do extra damage. As hammers and maces are not cutting weapons, it clear means all listed may do at least +1.

Second paragraph says cutting weapons may have +1 or +2. This is where hammers, maces and javelins (I also would add tridents) are limited to +1 damage.
