I was a frost tank before i changed to blood. And that specc of yours may work well on both AoE tanking, and single targets. With a few changes. Stuff like
Hungering Cold
is just a waste for PvE. 3 points in
Morbidity
and 2 points in
Epidemic
from the unholy tree is something all DK tanks should have. I also recommend
Runic Power Mastery
as you will spam
Frost Strike
a bit. Hope that helped a bit :P
Edit: I completely forgot about
Bladed Armour
. 5 points there will increase your dps by alot!
Here's is a frost build which I used for awhile.

Well I do agree with some of that, but I still think that Morbidity is very useful. Yes, you normally use it once per pull. But what if someone in your group accidentally pulls a patrol, or similar before the 30 sec CD runs out. You wont have the time to build enough aggro from them all by applying diseases and doing pestilience then using HB. This normally results in a wipe. Scent of blood is also kinda a waste, as you will always have alot of RP.

Now that they nerfed unholy blight, 2H frost is probably the best aoe threat gen you can get on a DK. Drop D&D to pull and then pop glyphed HB.

Damage = threat.
Also, mocking pug dps'ers for being unable to beat the tank = lulz.

still use 2h weapon, still frost tanking,still working fine
blood tanking isn't all that great tbh
sure its fun to amaze others in heroic instances but for raiding no thank you
I also got healer and u see its a blood tank if his health bounces up and down like a jojo
don't have much aggro problems neither so far, hb works most the time
tried frost dual wield tanking for just a little while and it was horrible
I lost six talent points just to hold them weaps and had to regem def gems to end up with alot less stamina
2h frost still the best there is in my opinion
