TWF feat wanted

WotC's bitch
Is there a feat anywhere that lets you treat a 1-handed (not light) weapon as light, for the purposes of two-weapon fighting? I could swear I saw this once, but can't remember exactly where.

Arcana Unearthed has Massive TWF, which lets you wield two one-handed weapons as if the off-hand one was light. The prereqs are BAB +5 and Str 15+
 

Dervish (Complete Warrior) allows you to treat scimitars (normally one handed) as light weapons.

Possibly that?
 

I've seen DMs allow this effect with Monkey Grip, though technically that's a house rule. (As written the feat can make a two-handed weapon one-handed, but doesn't have any further effect on a one-handed weapon.)

Under 3.5 it doesn't do that anymore. It just allows you to a weapon one size category bigger than yourself as if it were you size category, but with a -2 penalty. A large one handed weapon can be wielded in one hand, but a medium two handed weapon still requires two hands (given, of course, that the wielder is medium).
 

Swashbuckling Adventures also has a feat similar to what John Q. Mayhem posted from AU, but with tougher prereqs.

Greater Off-hand Fighting: Requires Improved TWF, BAB +12, Strength 13+. You may use a medium weapon in your off-hand as if it were a light weapon.
 

GR's Plot & Poison has Weapon of Choice, which lets you treat a particular weapon as light for TWF & Weapon Finesse purposes. It's 3.0, so it talks about "a weapon of your size" rather than "a one-handed weapon".

And on top of that, 3.5 Monkey Grip specifically does not apply to an off-hand weapon... so you can't use a Large shortsword in your off hand and treat it as Light.

If you wield it in your primary hand, you do treat it as Light, but that doesn't help with TWF penalties :)
