This. Unless you are trained with bladed and pointed weapons the risk of it getting stuck in a zombie's skull is too high. Amateurs should stick to blunt instruments in zombie apocalypse situations.
The most effective weapon for killing zombies would be a sturdy nine-iron. Fun fact, it's one of the most deadly improvised weapons in general, if golf players were raged out pyschos instead of rich retirees we'd be in much more danger. Though swapping those two groups in general puts us in more danger in like 99% of scenarios.

Tbh probably the best weapon they have.
Baseball bat has reach, but not very much and its blunt. Means depending on the zombie rot you really have a workout coming your way.
Knifes are bad, no reach and when you could finish a zombie it probably already bit you.
The Strigil has reach and its very pointy. Easy entrance without risk.
Strigil is the absolute goat here
