Thanks for the help.
the 3.5 version of spiked chain :P
(sorry, couldn't resist)
make an exotic weapon, basically a light longspear
>:(
I know... I am not happy at all with pathfinder about that one, back when it was actually worth taking for an exotic weapon.

Scorpion whip works as a whip and the whip is finessable so the scorpion whip is too.
You could use a tiny long spear -- since it's still a long spear it technically still has reach, and since it's tiny it counts as a light weapon for a medium creature. However you do take a -4 penalty for using a weapon of the wrong size, and your damage dice is going to drop to 1d4.

Scorpion Whip sounds like a winner. I am giving this to my size tiny cohort, so this would give it a 10ft reach, 15ft with lung, and allow for it to sneak attack from my the top of my back pack.

Rapier + Lunge feat?
O-o
only problem with the scorpion whip is no AoO's with it :(

O-o
A weapon that is reach (so it does not threaten the close 5' sqs) and provokes AoO from anyone in that area when used?
I think that the Rapier + Lunge is a better choice. It may not reach 10'+, when tiny, but it would reach 5' (your threat area if it is riding on your shoulder, unless you are using reach yourself), does not provoke AoO, and more then likely does as much, if not more damage. Also, how is your cohort generating a Sneak Attack while on your shoulder?
Also, was the noob comment really needed?
Note, if you are using reach, then the Scorpion whip is pretty much your only choice.

Hmm... wasn't the Bladed Scarf (as found in Curse of the Crimson Throne) a reach weapon with Finesse?
Yup, it is: 2hd Exotic Weapon - 1d6 slashing 19-20 (x2) - trip weapon - finessable - Reach weapon (as well as threateniong adjacen squares). Plus, does some minor damaga agains those who succeed on a Grapple check against you.

Several that should but none that do.
Also a question if noone minds are monks automaticly proficent with monk weapons?
I would assume that if it has "monk" written in the special column of the weapon descriptions, then a monk has proficiency with that weapon. Otherwise, why bother writing it there? It would be very mean of Paizo to list that special quality, yet they still have to take a feat to gain proficiency with it. =)

The monk special weapon quality just means a monk can flurry with it, not that they are automatically proficient.

Monks are proficient with the club, crossbow (light or heavy), dagger, handaxe, javelin, kama, nunchaku, quarterstaff, sai, shortspear, short sword, shuriken, siangham, sling, and spear.
Kama, Nunchaku, Quarterstaff, Sai, Shuriken, and Siangham are all Core Monk Weapons. They are also the only ones with "monk" in the Core Weapons Chart.
Additionally:
- Brass Knuckles: Monks are proficient with brass knuckles and can use their monk unarmed damage when fighting with them.
- Cestus: Monks are proficient with the cestus.
- Temple Sword: Monks are proficient with the temple sword.
These are, like above, the only "Monk" weapons on the Advanced Gear chart.
