Can you get Dragon Style onto a Falcata?

[Minigiant]

I am toying around with an idea. Is it possible to get Dragon Style and Ferocity onto a Falcata.

I know of Ascetic Style but the Falcata is not a Monk Weapon.

Would I need to use Weapon Style Master?

Weapon Style Master or Master of Many Styles or somesuch. Sohei gets weapon training and can turn Falcata into a monk weapon for you, but this will take a lot of feats.

A fair bit of dragon style & ferocity functions with any weapon. The damage bonuses don't but it's likely easier to raise your damage with a falcata by other means than to get those damage bonuses to work with a falcata.

It is possible, but not cheap. You need a dip into Master of Many Styles, otherwise it costs nine or ten feats. Even with the dip, it still costs four feats (including the two Dragon feats).

What you need is to modify the falcata with versatile design, grap Exotic Weapon Proficiency and Modified Weapon Proficiency, take Ascetic Style as the MoMS bonus feat, and take Dragon Style and Dragon Ferocity as regular feats. With a bonus feat from class levels (e.g. Fighter or a second level in MoMS), or from race (human, half-elf, or tengu), you can have it online as soon as Dragon Ferocity becomes selectable, i.e. 5th level.

Er, no? Sohei allows you to flurry with the weapon, but doesn't make it a monk weapon (that would require giving it the monk weapon property).
