One of the players in my campaign is running a fighter that is using a Two-Bladed sword and we have just switched to Pathfinder. We were both confused on whether or not some of the Pathfinder feats would work with the two-bladed sword such as Two-Weapon Rend? Based on the rules it should work, but we had a hard time visualizing how it would work in a real scenerio.

Also My second question for TWF: When you attack with your off-handed weapon do you use your full strength bonus, half or none? My player is telling me it's the full strength bonus to damage for both hands and I thought it was only half.
Thanks

RAW, TWF with a double-sided weapon is identical to TWF with two weapons. TW Rend makes as much sense with a double-bladed sword as it does for a person dual-wielding a heavy mace and a shield...

Also, off-hand attacks add 1/2 your strength, UNLESS you have the feat Double Slice, which allows you to add your full strength on off-hand attacks.
