Projectile weapons with the Force property, and wepons with the Psychokinetic property deal force damage.
A force effect originating on the Material Plane extends onto the Ethereal Plane, so one would think that these weapons could be used to attack ethereal creatures (including sneak attacks if applicable). Sadly, the descriptions only mention incorporeal creatures, which is not the same thing.

How can I as a non-spell caster deal some damage to ethereal creatures, including getting rid of the last 20% miss chance against blinking enemies? (Ability to see invisible creatures is assumed). Ethereal Reaver property has a promising name, but description just says it works as a Ghost Touch weapon (which doesn't work against ethereal creatures, from what I can tell). And what about a Rod of Whips or Rod of Force?

Ethereal Reaver from Complete Psionic is different.
It exists on both planes and allow the wielder to attack both planes at the same time.

This is one of the few things that can attack from Ethereal to the Prime.

EDIT: I think there's a material called Riverine that is pure force or something. Perhaps that?
