Your gems are wrong for one. If you really want a socket bonus (which you shouldn't unless it's +6 str per gem) you should do crit/str. There is never any point to a pure crit gem. None. A +10 to all stats gem to activate your meta is better than +str/stam.
Your spec is a little bit weird, but not in any way that is going to hurt your personal DPS, just in a way that hurts your utility.

Overcapped on Expertise, overcapped on hit, and inefficient rotation.
I'd suggest you look at the Stickies while I redo your character.

Oh yes, you're overcapped. I didn't mention it though because you haven't gemmed, enchanted, or glyphed for them, and it's hard to stay right at the caps.

I roll as a retribution paladin too, and my DPS is not he lowest but it's not the highest either when I'm doing heroics. However, I have the highest total damage done at the end of the instance. I don't know what was the armor the DK was using, nor his weapon, but if he was dual-wielding, it's normal he does more DPS than you, because you're using a two-handed, which is more powerful than a one-handed, but also slower. So, maybe he did more Damage per second than you, but you had the highest damage for sure. Rogues, DKs and warriors are the best melee classes for DPS in my opinion, because they dual-wield and hit kind of fast. It's not like you're doing anything wrong, they are just that good.

only one spec of DKs and one spec of warriors dual wields. i'm not sure if fury is the top dps spec for warriors or not, but i know frost is not the highest dps spec for DKs...

only one spec of DKs.
Two, UH DW is a valid raiding spec, just not popular.

I thought UH 2h was categorically better since 3.3. Viable but not optimal I guess?

UH 2H is better than UH DW in the same way Frost DW is better than Frost 2H.
They have their advantages, but aren't popular.
