Yes, if you use any type of socket fillers the req lvl is the one that is highest, between item and socket filler. Kabraxis rune is req lvl 120 so the MOs pushed it further, not totally wasted but you do have to grind xp now, maybe even use 2 Sigils of Absolution on it. Also it is best to MO before socketing in the case of getting more %ED, just be aware of the req lvl.

I just found
Rainbow Fury
Rainbow Fury
Bone Shield (Sacred)

Defense: (1640 - 2123) to (1902 - 2461)
Chance to Block: Class%
Required Level: 100
Required Dexterity: 527
Item Level: 105
+1 to All Skills
Adds 25-50 Fire Damage
Adds 25-50 Lightning Damage
Adds 25-50 Cold Damage
-10% to Enemy Elemental Resistances
+(8 to 20) to Storm Crows
+(70 to 120)% Enhanced Defense
+(50 to 75) to Dexterity
+1 Life on Striking
Socketed (6)
. I have a feeling it's not going to be good, but I really want to it to be! lol

Since assassin would only get +3 to Storm Crows (due to class-skill limit) is this meant to be more for a throw barb to get the SC skill? Or even a javazon?

Knives have quantity and it DOES go down when you use them as melee weapon.
But because you are attacking so infrequently, only to activate shadow refugee, this isn't an issue, and there is no problem of item not being indestructible. I was playing whole day and lost maximum of 2-3 durability, which means one set of knives should last for entire season.
