Double bladed Scimitar?

[RigaMortus]

I am almost certain I've seen a Double Bladed Scimitar in one of the books (I think WotC book, but can't be sure).

Does anyone know if such a weapon exists, and if so, which book it is in?

Also, if such a weapon does exist, could it be used with the Dervish PrC (where the Dervish gets bonuses for fighting with Scimitars)???

It's in the Eberron CS. Valenar double scimitar. Has the stats you would expect.

As to whether it could be used with a special ability that referred specifically to a scimitar, I doubt it, by the letter of the rules. Weapon focus: longsword doesn't apply to a two-bladed sword, which is the same relationship. Wouldn't be an unreasonable variant, though I'd have to read the dervish to be sure. I'd probably make the player choose a kind of scimitar when he first chose the class: scimtar, falchion, or double scimitar, and make it stick.

The only bonus the dervish gets for scimitars is the ability to treat them like light weapons. His bonuses from the dervish dance apply when using any slashing weapon, so a double scimitar should qualify (and being a double weapon, the off hand is already considered light).
