Oct 17 2008Zombie Tools: Weaponry For The Apocalypse

Zombie Tools sells accessories for the apocalypse. Namely swords. They currently have three models available: the Two-Handed Apocalax, Urban Bone Machete, Mark II, and the Two-Faced Bitch (I know one!). They run $375, $250, and $350, respectively. Oh shit, and they also sell novelty t-shirts. Because, lets face it, you can freaking forget about surviving the apocalypse without a catchy t-shirt.
Hit the jump to see the blades.

Thanks to John, who will undoubtedly survive the apocalypse thanks to the proper tools.

22. shawn - October 17, 2008 3:15 PM
When, in any zombie movie, have you ever seen the weapon being a large blade? It's usually a shotgun or a very large pistol.
23. Mothra - October 17, 2008 3:16 PM
Word, Ash.
Also, you can buy a perfectly good machete at Wal*Mart for like 10 bucks.

How retarded. I have time to prepare for the apocalypse now, so I should buy swords that look like they were made AFTER the apocalypse before it happens. What?

54. TWH?CHdoktor - October 17, 2008 6:38 PM
chainsaws eventually run out of fuel, and guns run out of ammo. i'd prefer to keep either (or both) close by for when i come across more (fuel or ammo respectively), however a sword, axe, f*** it hatchet even, would be handy in a pinch. word to the paranoid/wise...
55. trizfay - October 17, 2008 7:16 PM
I bet they're made out of shitty stainless that doesn't take an edge and breaks when you try to cut anything. Feh!
56. Ace - October 17, 2008 8:02 PM
These would be cool if they were old and had .. what's the word..
Anyway
Now they're just a small part of the reason why America is failing. This has no real value, and is an example of what people spend their money on.

59. Zombie Tools - October 18, 2008 2:16 AM
Hey folks, thanks for checking out the site. We appreciate feedback. For those who have not taken the time to read the product descriptions or our FAQ here's the short version. All blades are handmade in Missoula, Montana out of 5160 spring steel and T6 aluminum grip for ridiculous durability. I'm not so much promoting our site as defending our products.
As for Zombie Tools being a small part of why America is failing, wow! Really? I was under the impression that using creativity and ambition to make a buck was one of the things that make America great. I'll have to tell the guys. They'll be so disappointed.
No real value? One. If Americans didn't spend their money on things they didn't need we wouldn't have an economy. Two. If value can be weighed on things you need to survive, a good, sturdy, sharp blade would rank much higher than music, movies, more than one pair of clothes, McDonald's food, even my precious computer.
End Rant
Thanks again for checking out the site. Oh, and read the FAQ, it's a hoot!

Has noone read the zombie survival guide?! A shotgun is good and all, but with the cone of fire, you'd have to be close to do any serious damage, and zombies use the mob mentality. A heavy handgun is used for single shots, only if you have good aim. An automatic rifle, preferably with a silencer, is the best option.
A well honed blade is good to have, but not as a main weapon. It should only be as a last ditch, when you've run out of ammo and have no place to run.
Chainsaw? Sure, it looked good on screen, but think of fuel and weight. Heaving around a chainsaw, tiring yourself out as zombie bits fly.... INFECTED zombie bits that is, and *putt putt.....* its dead, and your flesh is then kissed from your bones by your soon-to-be decomposing compatriots.
The zombie apocalypse is a very real threat looming over our society. Prepare for it well. I give this website a thumbs up though, as yet another step toward preparedness.
61. Thumperchica - October 18, 2008 8:22 AM
*TAKEN FROM ZOMBIETOOLS FAQ*
How long does it take you to make a blade?
You mean in beer hours or actual hours?
Um, actual hours?
Impossible to say.
Okay, beer hours?
Don’t really know. We’ve been making the blades in batches, we’ve been doing a lot of experimentation, and we drink a lot of beer. If we were to make a single blade from start to finish, without drinking beer, it would probably take us 2 days. But why the f*** would we do that?
END THEFT HERE
Would you want to carry a sword made by a drunken monkey?
62. Thumperchica - October 18, 2008 8:29 AM
BTW - my answer is yes...
I'm still digging on the Machete-style sword!
And guys, your FAQ is pretty funny
63. P05TMAN - October 18, 2008 8:30 AM
Hail to the king, baby...
64. Ash - October 18, 2008 9:11 AM
Come on im not just talking about any chainsaw or shotgun im talking about the special kind you can purchase at S-MART that never run out of fuel or shells. As shown in Army of Darkness.
65. P05TMAN - October 18, 2008 9:39 AM
^ What the hell are you talking about? All that was from Never Back Down.
66. Ash - October 18, 2008 10:50 AM
No Never Back Down Stole it
67. secret agent bob - October 18, 2008 3:12 PM
the sword is the best overall zombie fighting tool
it never need to be reloaded or refueled and it will never jam
well maybe itll get jammed in a skull
68. LSDiesel - October 18, 2008 7:37 PM
At lease someone is taking precautions. I was getting worried because neither McCain Or Obama has addressed our growing zombie problem and pre-apocalypse preparations.
69. JRod - October 19, 2008 7:09 PM
ooo... i want one!
70. Cyberwulf - October 20, 2008 12:54 AM
Read the zombie survival guide. Real book, very informative.
71. chris - October 20, 2008 1:32 PM

72. TehNewbHunter - October 20, 2008 2:13 PM
For anybody who has read The Zombie Survival Guide, you'll prolly agree with me when i say i'll pass and the swords and take a carbine instead.

Zombie Survival Guide: For those too stupid or dense to use common sense in the face of an undead army.
Come on guys, let's let survival of the fittest play out the way it's supposed to.
74. The Guy With The Thing - October 22, 2008 9:50 PM
Personally, I like getting up close and personal with them undead bastards. that's why I like this weapon from merlos cutlery. I have two of theses and I wear a kevlar body suit with a lexan riot helmet.

Anybody who decides to go into it without a plan is doomed to either die by zombie or become some shiftless bandit fighting over food while the planners are hidden away safe in their post apocalyptic fortress communities.
77. EDC - March 13, 2009 9:17 AM
zombies are like 'bling', overused.

I want a Lobo.
The lobotomizer was described in Max Brooks World War Z. I've seen some design sketches online, but has anyone actually made one?

84. Howitzer - October 14, 2009 6:47 PM
I like the machete, but for $250, one could get a regular one plus a shotgun and several boxes of deer slug ammo.
