One other thing I know that a lot of fighters do is carry both, a 1h sword and an axe. That way they can switch back and forth as needed.
Excellent point. Most 50+ fighters I've partied with carry all three weapons, allowing them to change it up for an occurring circumstance.

Now, I didn't stay with fighters long, but I started out as one during the first months of CB1. I don't know skills either, but what I WILL suggest is a strategical build of either 2:1 END and STR, or the converse. I suggest the latter, because if you're going for 1h'd weaps like you said, then you will need those extra points to hold aggro. Also, like Loveless said, work on the cooldown of those skills (mock, devastate, etc.). Since DDs have the possibility of having high SPR, learn to use the 1h only in situations that permit it, as they can draw aggro from just ONE attack that crits, possibly.

I've never heard of a SPR build for fighters. Then again, it might be interesting to see how it works out.
