you cant backstab with blunt weapons or bastard swords, so go with katana or long sword as your main hand weapon, and the THAC0 penalties for dual-wielding can be crippling so i usually go

*** two weapon style
** katana
* mace

then add weapon proficiencies according to what weapons you find that you like, but i do recommend becoming proficient in at least one blunt weapon type.
