Is there any feat around allowing you to use full str bonus with your off-hand or secondary attack??

Without knowing the edition you're using I'm assuming that it's 3.5e. Pathfinder (which CLAIMS to be compatible with 3.5e) has a feat called Double Slice: http://www.d20pfsrd.com/feats/combat-feats/double-slice-combat---final
You could show it to your DM and see if he's willing to allow it. That said, my understanding is that Paizo beefed up all PCs a bit in Pathfinder and as a result Pathfinder PCs are typically more powerful then 3.5e PCs. So I'm unsure if you're DM will allow this feat. |

Well, there are feats around allowing double str bonus for two handed swords, so the off hand thing is not all too overpowered.
but thanks for the link! |

There are? Glad me players found out about those. Do you know the sources? |

| Pathfinder is your friend for new 3.5 material. Take Double Slice which is a feat from their core book. Go to the PRD website for access to all their PRD feats |

Because it is. Compatible, of course, doesn't necessarily mean balanced, but I've been able to use 3.0 material in my pathfinder games without undue hiccup. |

| Really, it's not worth a feat. It is in Pathfinder because they get a feat every odd-level so people can be a little more free with Feat selection. But using it for v3.5, well there are a lot better feats to choose from that net your greater results or more versatility. |

| It's not a bad feat for high Str dual wielders. Few feats allow extra damage, only Weapon Specialization feat chain comes to mind. Yeah Power Attack, but at the cost of accurate hits. |
