The first thing that should be put into consideration is how easy it would be to cut through the head of the zombie, because it is essential to quickly and cleanly kill the zombie, and still have enough time to react to any other zombies in close proximity. One weapon that is very good at doing the job is a katana. It is good because no bullets or ammunition are needed, there is no limit on how much time can be spent shooting, and how sharp they are. They are also good because no reload time is needed, and that time it takes to reload can be deadly.

Another meelee weapon that fills this standard is an axe. It does the same as a sword, but it has a few drawbacks. The first being how the surface are of the sharp part is much smaller than a sword. It also has a heavier weight which can cause a delay between killing, which might equal death.
