If you are going for miscellaneous object use, I suggest an adamantine enormous corkscrew.
 
Then I can say, "Your drill is the drill that will pierce the heavens!"

Also, they are pretty freaking awesome.

I've had a lot of success with a severed elephant head. Makes a good throwing weapon too, I managed to stick it into a villager's chest from 5 squares away.

How did I get this fine weapon? My first combat - an elephant charged at me, I dodged to the side, and it ran into a tree and knocked itself unconscious.

I thought enormous corkscrews did blunt damage.  Wouldn't that make adamantine horrible for it?

You make a enormous adamantine corkscrew.
You charge at Elf 1!
Elf 1 looks surprised by the ferocity of Your onslaught!
You drill Elf 1 in the lower body with your enormous adamantine corkscrew, tearing apart the muscle and tearing apart the right kidney!
The enormous adamantine corkscrew has lodged firmly in the wound!
You collide with Elf 1!
You maintain possession of the enormous adamantine corkscrew.
Elf 1 is knocked over and tumbles backward!

Corkscrews deal edged damage, and "drill" their targets with very high penetration.

They are edged and they are probably the best weapon to kill titans with since you can easily puncture their organs with it. They are also really lightweight when made of adamantine,  so it won't slow you down much at all.  The best weapon for decapitations is a giant adamantine axeblade though, you really can't go wrong with either, or better yet both!

throwing cages at enemies is pretty much certain destruction, but it's so heavy that carrying cages around as weapons is highly unpractical.

When possible, I use furniture to chuck at and to whack fleeing adversaries upside the head.
