You could also do it with a fighter. Build with high dex, take light blade feats. I noticed reading through the mid and high level fighter powers last night that there would be a lot of options for those inclined to buckle the swash.

Rogue with a Rapier and the Fighter multi-class feat, and then take the Kensei paragon path (in the Fighter section).

I am totally stealing this character concept! Yoink!

The fighter powers uses strength, not dex. If you want powers that use dex, take the rogue. Multiclassing to rogue is also a possibility, but it doesn't really make sense.

Couldn't you also take the Sword Master PP instead? I don't have the books soI don't know the difference between the 2 paths. Also, there are rules for bluffing/feinting in combat.

Rogue with the fighter multiclass so you can pick up sword master (only problem is you need str to take advantage of swordmaster)

I would most likely take the artful dodger option and have Dex as most important while trying to split focus between Str and Cha

Would a rogue with a rapier be able to sneak attack with it?

Because from the builds I've seen, without the bonus damage from sneak attack, the rogue is fairly suboptimal as a striker compared to the Ranger.

Rapier is considered a light blade

Derek! I have your answer finally:

Yes. You can use Bluff as a standard action to gain combat advantage against the target in the following round.

I agree with rogue/fighter->Kensei (that level 20 power kicks more ass than I could kick with three legs), also TWF Ranger mcd with Rogue would be nice if you want rapier/dagger style guy. The fluff of the powers might not fit as well though.
