2009-11-07T21:40:00-07:00

At four feet long and six pounds this girl will cleave through even the most headstrong zombie. Full tang 1/4” 5160 steel and T6 aluminum handle slabs make this durable blade on of the most ferocious weapons in the ZT armory.

If we pick your name we will send you a free T-shirt and and at least 700 pounds of glory. …

The ZT boys will be taking our show on the road over the next month. This week on May 22-25 we’ll be at our local science fiction convention, MisCon 23 in Missoula. We’ll be selling wares and raising hell with random swordfighting and cutting demonstrations (watch your back, noob). Swing by our booth in the vendor room and say howdy. Next up, we hit Seattle’s Crypticon horror convention on June 5 - 7. Again, we’ll have blades, t-shirts and, ideally, a good buzz on as we shake the hayseeds out of…

Introducing the Zack Ax

2009-05-05T16:55:00-07:00

Bitches beware: the Zack Ax (project name: the Femme Fatale) is finally in production. Whether in a backalley of a burnt-out burb or the backwaters of BFE, the ZT Zack Ax will be a handy little girl to have by your side. With her curved forward edge and a hefty blade, she’s perfect little hand ax for chopping wood for the fire and, of course, separating Zack’s vertebra should you be forced into a close quarters confrontation. The curved inside edge adds a little slash to her hack, and is great for cutting rope. Our new handle design…

New Prototype: d’Capitan

2009-04-30T02:05:01-07:00

May we introduce the pièce de résistance of Zombie Tools’ spring lineup of blades: d’Capitan. If we do say so ourselves, d’Capitan is the most badassest collision of form and function we’ve come up with here in the ZT labs. Created by ZT Blade Design Czar, Maxon, and modeled loosely after the medieval falcata, d’Capitan is designed to deliver a ferocious flesh-rending hack while still maintaining some of the speed and versatility of a sword. A totally new handle design provides good hand protection and one of the more comfortable grips we’ve produced. West, Zombie Tools’ Safety Officer…
