A good side-effect of this build is that, at 12 Str, you'll be able to wield the majority of Dex weapons, too (right now you can wield: all the curved swords and piercing swords, and some of the straight swords--Balder Side Sword included). Whips are a lot of fun, but you'll probably want some variety once in a while! You could consider:
13 Str: in addition to all the Dex weapons you can wield now, would add the Winged Spear and Partizan
14 Str: all of the above, plus Uchigatana and Iaito.
Also, if you like parrying, I'd recommend you try the whip in your offhand. You can parry with it and still have 1 attack, which can't be parried. Combined with another dex weapon in your main hand (Painting Guardian Sword, Estoc, Balder Side Sword, spears, etc) this makes a very lethal combo.
