It's better with 2 hander, you get a much better runeforge on it (the 25def + stam), and you also hit slower, so boss will parry less.

'Better' is relative.
We have a few guildies who tank with their DK's. Only one of them currently dual-wield tanks, although another one has decided to start because it looks fun. As a healer the only tank I ever have to concentrate on healing is a DK - 'miss, miss, miss, parry, miss, parry, parry, SMACKSMACKSMACK, miss, miss...' - wakes you up a bit :D
But, there's never been any difference in the way our runs go whether we have the 2h-tank or the dual-wield tank. They hold aggro, they take the same damage, runs get finished. So yeah, definitely viable.
My knowledge of DK's extends to "they wear plate and look weird and put all that green and red crap on the floor where I'm standing", so I can't be a lot of help in explaining the differences.
Check out the DK class forums. I'm almost positive there's a link in the Helpful Threads sticky at the top of the forum that goes to to a guide on how to dual-wield tank.
