You could also get a big sword-shaped ice cube mold, a chest freezer and probably not even a whole enemy.

You would have to do battle in freezing climates too though in order for it to remain physically effective

Though I imagine the psychological effectiveness might persist a bit longer

I'd suggest a warhammer mold, just for stability.

But then you'd have to paint it.

Mythbusters did this on their first episode: ice bullet. I think a sword might also be too brittle unfortunately.
