In the image below I created a second layer of the original "T" and put a stoke effect on that layer to give it a outline. However the corners are rounded and I wanted to know how to match the "T"

Ah, I guess I misunderstood, anyway if an outer stroke should have pointy corners:

To maintain sharp edges apply the stoke to the inside.

Though you will find the "inside" corners are now rounded.

To achieve sharp edges all around you'll need a shape layer (with 2 overlapping shapes) and use the subtract from shape option.

You can create the shape by choosing "convert to Shape" from the Type Menu item.

That’s what the Layer Style does.

If you want a vector Stroke you need to create a Shape Layer.
