I am pretty sure this is not how it works, but cannot find anything on the matter on the SRD. If I am using large size weapons, thanks to the Strongarm Bracers, does my reach increase?

If not (pretty sure it does not), how else could I increase reach while being locked to a certain weapon, or in my case, pair of weapons. Are there any feats, or magic items? I know about enlarge person, but i would rather not have to use a potion or scroll, so a wondrous item that can be swift action activated, or continuous use, would be best.

Reach is dependent on your size (plus whether you're using a reach weapon), not weapon size, ridiculously enough. A Huge giant using a Tiny dagger has the same reach as a Huge giant using a Huge greatsword (15 ft.). A Huge giant using a Small longspear supposedly has a reach of 30 ft.

Even more humorously, a major titan-bloodline pixie wielding a Gargantuan Warhammer has a reach of....5ft :smallannoyed:

Simply wielding a weapon with a handle wider then you is ridiculous

There's a Goliath Barbarian in our party at the minute, who gains reach while raging...
