I looked through the DK tanking guide in the sticky and I am confused a bit why it says take 2h spec as well as Threat of Thassarian when that says its for dw.
This is the spec I was looking at:

I am absolutely new to tanking and my DK is only 61 but my friend says I should give it a stab. I am just a little lost is all, the stickies seam to outline things well but none of the ones on that page outline up to 80 (i like to look ahead), is that just because after whats outlined its more into personal pref? Please help me and I am sorry that this is a noob question. I am currently using 2-h weapons.

First, I would only spec tank at level 61
if
A)
I had a core group that was going to run dungeons with me, OR
B)
I had the gold to dual-spec.
You are more likely to level up quicker with one of the usual leveling specs and reach your 70==>80 dungeons, where you will find it easier to get dungeon groups that need a tank.
But, my personal recommendation would be something around
this
, for the fresh DK tank. Work your way up til you get howling blast, then dedicate other points in blood or unholy as you see fit.

I didn't get from your post if you preferred to go as dw frost or blood. I can not tell you a rotation for frost. but if you aren't impartial to blood tanking you can use this
spec
. The rotation for this spec a brain dead person can use :P all you have to do is lay dnd>It>ps after that its dependant on if you have a good healer or not if you do then you spam
Obliterate
and bs. Refreshing your disease's once they get low with
Pestilence
. If you have a bad healer use
Death Strike
instead of
Obliterate
. If its a boss just remember to relay dnd down and your golden.
