Another excellent melee weapon, these nifty little bastards are used by firefighters and law enforcement when they need to make a forcible entry.

Now, in a zombie apocalypse, chances are the fire station and the police station have already been raided, but you can probably bet that they were ransacked for bullets, axes, batons, medical supplies, etc.

The raiders probably overlooked the Halligan bar altogether, which is a shame (for them, at least - it's a blessing for you), because it's essentially a multipurpose zombie-killer. It's got a claw or fork, a bladed bit (either a wedge or an adze), and a pretty hardcore spike. All of these components are in service of one goal: forcing your way through doors in high-intensity situations. That in and of itself might come in handy during a zombie apocalypse, but in said zombie apocalypse, these components are perfect for something else: WRECKING ZOMBIES.

The wedge/adze end can scoop a zombie's head open, brains and all, and the pick/spike can puncture an undead skull like it's nothing. This bad boy is versatile, and even if you don't kill zombies with it, it'd still be nice to have.
