Now if you had some of those old school laser disks. Perhaps. You could probably fashion some close in slashing weapon out of cd's, but that would hardly affect the zombie like an impact weapon, or another that would cause grievous injury, ie decapitation.

Besides... are you saying that there is not a pub nearby with a rifle mounted on the wall from where you might make your stand?

Old 78s that you can't find a turntable to play. Rather heavy , quite durable.

I believe the most effective is taekwondo. Not to deliver roundhouses to the body but to the head. Hard enough with steel toe boots if you're trained well you can kill one infected with one kick. Now imagine you're weilded with two melee weapons per say. You swing with your left to one, right roundhouse to the head with another one, spinning hook kick with with your left to another one and then swing your right armed weapon to the fourth infected. Taking out 4 infected with four hits or you can continue with a 360 roundhouse and keep in rotating. (u wil b dizzy) Also when you encounter by surprise a taekwondo it's would instinctly leap back and push kick to the chest to the neck would be preferred because it knock them off balance from leverage of contact. The zombie would most likely be on their heels if directed to neck. With chest they would most likely stumble back. Also if there's a infected sprinting towards you might as well give him the strongest side kick to the face. Opposite collision against your foot and his head would prob dislocated the spinal chord in the neck region. The zombie would prob be snarling but paralyzed hahahah. Just remember that a zombie only dies when massive trauma is applied to the brain. Shot or bludgeoned at their heads by tkd power is the journey to your survival.

I swear on my legs I posted a huge paragraph on how taekwondo is the most effective and now deleted. I guess next time.

Only one problem--blood spatter. That and dizziness is a no go. Sword would be great, but I would still worry about blood spatter. A much earlier suggestion of a motorcycle helmet would take care of that. But if the disease became airborne, would a gas mask help?

I definitely know what style works best against leprechauns: Street.

You better hope none of the zombies used to be a judo yellow belt, or you're getting osotoromero'ed.

If it was zombies that spread through a bite only then definently Judo/bjj kick boxing (bjj will help if you fall). Marksmanship and skill with close combat weapons! :)
