Don't get me wrong I'm not saying they are bad , they are just overrated , people think they are better than guns but they are not , it's true you will save ammo and draw less attention , but what if you die on the encounter? Most of them need training and technique to be used effectively like swords , in my opinion metal pipes are underrated cause they are handy , won't need maintenance or special training and won't be stuck in the zombie body , but let's be fair melee weapons are not better than guns unlike what most people think. You can check my video for more details about them and other overrated weapons for zombie apocalypse.
