Long time reader first time comment :-)
I been playing death knight class since wotlk beta and love the goods and bad about the class, but this column really caught my eye so i figured i would put my 2 cents in for a change. Forgive my spelling and typing skills in advance...

Above link is my armory page for a 5800gs blood tank, 10 man only gear with exception of legs from 25 man marrowgar. I do some things different then other players so my build will be boo'd by many but it works for me and thats all that matters. Keep in mind I am there to tank and not to dps therefore I want more survival then dps when I am main tanking a boss so here we go...
Single target rotation -
IT / PS / DS / HS / PEST
DS / DS / HS / HS
IT / IT / IT / IT / HS / PEST
DS / DS / HS / HS
This is my typical way to start a boss, Icy Touch is outrageous on threat now and sacrificing your personal dps for more threat allows your dps to use cool downs sooner and more often therefore increasing raid dps in the long run. Remember im there for threat and survival not dps.
Hysteria will be used on dps obviously, I have improved blood presence for when im playing dps offtank "helps the healers".
Doing this rotation I do about 11k heals per death strike with our raid composition. I'm not very good at this type a thing so anyone has question please feel free to ask. Thanks
