Oh, sorry. I should have specified in the original post, it's got to be an item that exists in real life. So no, sorry, no lightsabers.

I see we don't have a zombie smiley.

Doesn't that requirement rule out the possibility of a zombie apocalypse?

Dave,
Actually... AR-15 or a .22 for distance. Get'im before they're are even remotely near you. Shotgun for closer. That way, aiming ain't an issue. Just point and shoot. The zombie(s) get "killed" or disabled. May even get multiple kills. Lightweight sword for up close and personal. A nice balance between a length and usability.
'course I've always wonder how well a bow and arrow would do against zombies. I like the idea of something that is relatively easy to make and ammo can be made easily. Same goes for a sling. Easy to make, ammo is readily available. Probably won't stop a zombi entirely but could disable it. Even that is useful. Disable and then slice and dice.

Okay, I'm going to go down eventually, so I want to go with a smile on my face.
So I'll take a tall, leggy redhead with no morals.

I'd prefer the tall leggy redhead with no morals that wants to be protected by a guy with an AR and 2000 rounds of ammo... But I do see your point.

Weird, that one is not showing up in my smiley dropdown.
And sure, a lightsaber might exist in real life, but not functionally equivalent to what we've seen in the movies for sure.

Kukri
or a longsword.
Having an ammo-less quality hand-to-hand weapon for close quarters is vital. I'm leaning toward to the Kukri for that.
I'd find or make other weapons for longer range combat.
