ok i was messing with my 0/31/40 dw dk when i got bored of everyone asking if i was tank for heroes.
so i decided to get a dw spec for tanking, and after some tryouts i have come out with this
http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=j0xZGxgt0cbohRVosZ0xh
its not complete, since i tried to get all the most important talents, and it seems i got all of them.
now the hard part:
- first, imho 3/3 virulence > 3/3 nocs. spell hit is the most important imho, white cap is impossible. anyway from my calculations i must get around 9% hit more. correct me if im wrong.
- is KM worth for aggro? if yes ill get it otherwise no. same for bladed armor.
- its better FS or DC? i took FS since with glyph u can get 3 of them instead of 2, and does quite damage and aggro.
ok. last, i know that 2h builds for tanking are slightly better, but i think this spec (or something similar) can do good numbers. (and i love DW my main is a rogue remeber :P) thx for any help.

Uh, is this for 80? I assume it is, but you don't actually say..so, a list of things to add/change:
Chill of the Grave is worthless without Runic Power Mastery IMO.
Tundra Stalker is really a must for DW tanking, the Expertise is wonderful.
Max out NoCS.
KM is awesome for tanking. Not as good as it was, but you really should take it. You won't have enough points to fill up Bladed Armor with it, but it's worth it. If you only want Bladed Armor 5/5, I'd go for Epidemic and Unholy Command instead unless you're willing to drop a point elsewhere.
Also, FS is far, far better than DC. It hits for more, and with enough hit, which you should espically be stacking as DW, it will always hit.

yeah i am 80. these are the basics points, since for some i was doubtful. i thought it was a nice skeleton, and i was asking for the other missing points. srry if i wasnt clear.
anyway, following your directions:
with bladed armor:

with cotg+rpm :

which one is better? or i need to swap some other points?
EDIT: i got also this option, bladed armor full and cotg+rpm but no more improved icy talons (dont like it much but i tried)

EDIT2: ok no one seems to know enough of his class to respond me.
