A friend of mine is doing a high-level dungeon crawl for us, and with the addition of the Weapon Masters Handbook, I couldn't resist trying a pure fighter out.
However, I am far from used to operating at this level, so I would like some input and critique of my build.

I have a dedicated flanking buddy, with a large threat range and Butterfly's Sting, so I decided to try to be a brutal flanker. The punching dagger is far from optimal, but is pretty much the only flavor part I'm "married to". Level 20 is a possibility, but is pretty nebulous.

The build looks like this so far:

Race: Half-orc (Sacred tattoo)
Class: Fighter (Advanced Weapon Training 9: Focused Weapon, Advanced Weapon Training 13: Trained Initiative)
Ability Scores: (20-point buy)
Str 19 (+1 lvl4, lvl8, lvl 12)
Dex 14
Con 13 (+1 lvl4)
Int 10
Wis 13 [+1 lvl16)
Cha 7
Traits: Fate’s Favored, Defender of the Society
Feats:
1. Power attack (F), Combat Expertise (retrained from Dodge after grabbing headband)
2. Weapon Focus (punching dagger) (F)
3. Outslug Style
4. Weapon Specialization (Punching dagger) (F)
5. Advanced Weapon Training (Armed Bravery)
6. Lunge (F)
7. Keen Scent
8. Combat Reflexes (F)
9. Outslug Weave
10. Critical Focus (F)
11. Outflank
12. Greater Weapon Focus (punching dagger) (F)
13. Outslug Sprint
14. Staggering Critical (F)
15. Greater Weapon Specialization (punching dagger)
16. Critical Versatility (F)

Equipment:
Adamantine Impervious Keen Menacing Punching dagger +2
Mithral full plate +4
Armored Kilt
Heavy Steel Shield +3
Belt of Physical Perfection +6
Gloves of Dueling
Headband of Intelligence +4 (Knowledge: Dungeoneering and Perception)
Jingasa of the Fortunate Soldier
Unfettered Shirt
Boots of Striding and Springing
Cloak of Resistance +4
Ring of Protection +3
Ring of Sustenance

If anybody has thoughts, ideas or corrections, I'd appreciate it.
