Not really, a weapon is a weapon, in other words, something created/designed to kill and/or harm.

Anything can be used as a weapon, but it doesn't mean it actually is one. If you pick up a telephone and smash it into someones head, it'd have been used as a melee weapon, but it's still just a phone.

Things that were not created by man or anything else other than nature is kind of on the verge of being allowed imo, depending on what the object is. But something designed for another purpouse of being used as a weapon is not a weapon.

You can take parts from other creations and objects though, and create your own weapon out of it, that way it'd have been designed as a weapon.

I know that I modeled a crowbar myself which is kinda silly, but I'd say certain tools shouldn't be excluded from the theme.
