I've often thought that a Samurai's Naginata would be a perfect weapon for a zombie apocalypse. If you could somehow sabre-ise this.
Now the shaft? If you've read Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time series you'd be familiar with Matt's black spear.
If you haven't read it .. do it now!
Matt's black spear.. so much innuendo, so little time.
And here i tought you would go for Rand's Heron-blade...
I got trough all untill book 7 or 8 and then they brought back a minor character from book 1, and i called it quits.
"why did she remind him of hay" indeed...

Honestly, ANY lightsaber would be the ultimate zombie weapon

I don't want to railroad the theme of this thread BUT,
I hear you on that point. I got stuck on 6 or 7 where the female characters sat around whinging about how their men are away. There were whole blocks of the book dedicated to the rantings of the princess dame about the letters she was writing to Rand and how he better be behaving himself in case she decides to hook up. Once I got past that it was back to awesome again.
I really enjoyed Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss recently. That's definitely worth a read.

Ooooh, lightsaber pikes! I forgot about those. I'm changing my answer. I'll take an orange lightsaber pike with an orange curved-hilt lightsaber as backup.
A half decade ago I was writing a fan-fic about a sith with that combination of lightsabers. Ah, the memories.
A light scythe. Not as wieldy or balanced as a lighsbare, but come on it's a scythe!
Sith lord: "Behold the power of the dark side!"
Jedi me: "No, you behold the power of the light scythe!"
(badum-tisshhh)
I was going to say, as right now I'm watching Van Helsing, what about a crossbow that fired little mini lightsabres in rapid succession .. Then I realised "Chewie ninja'd me!!"
A regular lightsaber in one hand, cortosis weave shield in the other.
Either that or one or two wielded in a reverse-grip, a la Starkiller and Ahsoka.

Just don't ever try that in a fight...If you slow it down, you'll notice Starkiller changes his grip with his initial swing. Reverse grips are terrible, technique-wise. It just doesn't work
I'd go with little red lightsaber darts. Who wants to fight a guy with darts!?

Light Karambits. Whirly death machine.

Ahhh. I've got one of those...nifty little things. Dangerous and not exactly good for an everyday knife though
Light-mace. Mandalorian Iron shaft and head, six light-flanges projected around the head and a short light-spike out of the top of the thing. Combine this with a Mandalorian Iron shield and you're good to go against most any other light-weapon wielder.
Svardstav; i.e. the blade on a long stick. In part for the reach, in part to get that thing at a moderately safe distance from myself. If a person can regularly cut himself with something as safe as paper, it is probably best to keep a glowing rod that-burns-through-everything-it-touches-in-moments a few feet away. In a lovely, deep mossy green please. Where can I pay?
Sooo....like this?
