[edit] Broken Bottles
Not very effective because to use these, you either have to be extremely quick(Jet Li) or indestructible(Superman) to use these, for you have to risk close combat, getting bit, and injuring yourself with the same glass you are trying to hurt the zombie with
[edit] Kitchen Knives
Only to be used in EXTREMELY CLOSE QUARTERS. They can hurt you, and if not used properly, they can make zombies even scarier(how would you like to see a zombie coming at you with blades coming out of it?). On the bright side, if they are sharp enough, they can easily cut a zombies head clean off.
[edit] Ropes and Chains
Useful if used correctly, a rope or a chain can slow a zombie or group of zombies dramaticaly. Say you are held up in a bedroom. if you take a rope and tie it to either sides of the doorway at knee height, approaching zombies will trip and fall, giving you time to, say, smash their heads with a solid oak baseball bat or stab them with a knife.
Chains can be spun overhead and sent flying at a zombies legs to trip them up and then finish them off
