Why can't I swing a sharp metal stick with one hand!?
You can. It just has to be a smaller sharp metal stick than the one you used to swing with two hands.
Titan Mauler Barbarian
Jotungrip (Ex): At 2nd level, a titan mauler may choose to wield a two-handed weapon in one hand with a –2 penalty on attack rolls while doing so. The weapon must be appropriately sized for her, and it is treated as one-handed when determining the effect of Power Attack, Strength bonus to damage, and the like. This ability replaces uncanny dodge.
Alchemist
Vestigial Arm (Ex): The alchemist gains a new arm (left or right) on his torso. The arm is fully under his control and cannot be concealed except with magic or bulky clothing. The arm does not give the alchemist any extra attacks or actions per round, though the arm can wield a weapon and make attacks as part of the alchemist's attack routine (using two-weapon fighting). The arm can manipulate or hold items as well as the alchemist's original arms (for example, allowing the alchemist to use one hand to wield a weapon, another hand to hold a potion, and the third hand to throw a bomb). The arm has its own "hand" and "ring" magic item slots (though the alchemist can still only wear two rings and two hand magic items at a time). An alchemist may take this discovery up to two times.

Look man.
I don't want to be that guy, but I'm about to.
I disagree with the vast majority of posts that tell other players that they are doing bad wrong fun. I really, really do.
So please understand me that while this sort of silliness might be good for your game, and if your group has fun with it, then please go ahead and do it all day long.
But I don't get it.
I just don't understand.
Who looks at a great sword, or a great axe, or a bastard sword, or whatever enormous piece of weaponry you are wanting to use, and says to themselves "Now then, I wish to use this one handed....because......"
and that's where I draw the line. I cannot fathom that anyone would have an answer for what lies beyond the "because" part.
And yes, I know, anime.
Which is also something I don't get.
I don't mind you young whippersnappers walking on my yard. Too much.
But dagnabbit, get off my lawn!
I'm a fraid I have to disagree with Bomanz and side with the rest... this is the rules questions section, so answers go per RAW, or at best RAI, not as per the rule of cool... so yeah, as per the rules use a bastard sword or dip into titan mauler.

If you've devoted too much to use a particular weapon and don't want cross class into appropriate classes to get the abilities Harry mentioned, AND you don't want to take a Regen spell and roleplay that into an enchanted prostetic that maybe you can't take off because it has to attach itself to the host and it will lose it's enchantment if it's ever taken off forcibly.
Then the last idea I have for you is get a small sized weapon of the type you've been using, you will take a -2 to hit until you can get a feat to reduce that penalty (Pretty sure there is one, just can't think of what it is atm, and have to go to work!)

Cybernetic Arm
Price 4,750 gp; Slot arm; Weight 9 lbs.; Install DC 28; Implantation 2
A cybernetic arm completely replaces a normal arm, from the shoulder to the hand. It can take the place of an arm lost to a severing wound. The arm is fully functional and no different in appearance from a regular arm, although cyberart can be added to the arm at no additional cost. A cybernetic arm does not increase a user's Strength score. If a creature has two cybernetic arms, it can lift and carry double the normal maximum weight for that creature's Strength and size, and it gains a +5 circumstance bonus on Climb checks. A character who wields a one-handed or light weapon with a cybernetic arm gains a +5 bonus to CMD against disarm attempts; two cybernetic arms do not increase this bonus, but do allow the bonus to apply to two-handed weapons.
Construction
Craft DC 25; Cost 2,375 gp
Craft Cybertech, cybernetics lab
Ah! Helpful thanks Harry, however those would only work if I wasn't an occultist/ninja... definitely a fantastic thing to remember though thanks.
The smaller stick may not work as I'm quite invested in the elvish weapon style feats, I'll take a look and see what toothpicks I can use with them if I can retrain my weapon focus feats. Thanks for the wisdom Bill.
Consider retraining those feats? Maybe going on quest for a way to replace the arm? I find those kinds of in-character story arcs more compelling than raiding the rules for wielding 2-handed weapons in one hand.
I've seen the threads that have came before this one and I know it's impossible...
but I'm stupid and stubborn!
Either I figure out how to get a prosthetic arm or I figure out how to use a two handed weapon in one hand.
Dip one level into Titan Mauler.

Clock work prosthesis from magical marketplace.
Ask your GM why they decided to cut your arm off in the first place.
Where are the rules for severing limbs?
Sounds to me like your GM wanted to nerf you for some reason.
Cure the cause, not the symptom.

I've seen specific scenarios that called out results like this.
The Skull & Shackles AP has rules for permanent injuries.
Well, IF the cleric you can find is precisely lvl 13... high lvl casters are not that common (except in my own campaign world where characters are to tread softly lest they anger stronger folk than themselves), and you might have to ask somebody significantly more powerful than strictly necessary, simply because there's nobody else available/willing.
Also, it's a market thing, and if the guy you contact controls the market, he might demand a steeper price for the service... like, try assking for healing services from an evil temple because Evil has a monopoly on powerful enough priests in the area. Asmodeus might not turn you down, but you might not like the terms of the contract.
I wanted a character that dual wields great swords..... the closest I've come is to make a kasatha character since they have four arms. Technically each greatsword is wielded by 2 hands. Also if I choose Titan mauler I could theoretically wield 4 greatswords 1 handed.
May i direct you this way?
