The Stake House                     
         
Some of the weapons used on Angel & BtVS.

The stake, made of wood, carved into the typical pointed shape and used to kill vampires by pointing it directly through the heart of the vampire. Though any substitute made of wood can be used as a stake, as long as there's enough force behind it to go through the vampire, things like pencils, wooden poles, sign posts. Kendra, a past slayer, had one which she named Mr. Pointy.
Traditionally made of wood, a cross is lethal to any vampire, causing them to burn on contact. Buffy wore one around her neck and they can be used to fend off any vampires looking for a bite to eat. Also used in rituals for exorcising demons from human hosts. 
Holy water blessed by priests of local churches. Harmful to vampires, causes the skin the swell, burn and it's a very unpleasant situation. When ingested by a vampire it can kill the vampire and turns him/her into dust.
A flying fatality for any vampire on the receiving end of this, if a wooden arrow is used and the arrow hits the heart of the vampire the same effect as what happens with a stake is felt here, the vampire turns to dust. However you have to be fairly well trained in order to be able to use a crossbow. Crossbows can be used to cause harm to other demons and creatures.
The Bible can be used as a weapon against vampires, when touching a holy bible the vampire's skin begins to burn and smoke can be seen.
Fire is lethal to vampires, it can kill them if they are not put out in time. It burns the vampire to dust, the same thing that happens to them with stakes and holy water.
The most typically used weapon by vampires are their teeth, they can incur serious neck wounds with their teeth and they can feed off humans by puncturing the jugular vein the neck of the victim in order to feed off the person. Other areas can also be pierced but the neck is the most common.
Angel has a favourite broad sword which he always likes to use, uses it for decapitation, straight through the body and any kind of maiming which needs to be done. It's very sharp and very lethal in the right hands.
Faith was given this knife by Mayor Richard Wilkins III as a present. Faith called it a thing of beauty. After a meeting the the Scoobies Faith lost her knife while killing the spiders of gavroch. Buffy then used it to stab Faith and put her in a coma. The knife is called Jackal, and can be bought from specialist sellers.
Magic is a common source of weaponry, it can be used to do pretty much anything, so long as there is a powerful source from where the magic is coming from. It has been seen in both BtVS and Angel on numerous occasions. 
Guns aren't such a common occurrence but they are used if the adversary is human or has similar weaknesses. Bullets can not kill vampires how ever, even if shot in the heart, they can kill other demons, such as Billy Blim seen in Angel episode Billy.
Not a weapon typically used by a slayer but it was used to defeat The Judge, a demon, which it was claimed, no weapon could destroy him. As Buffy stated that was then and this is now. It was provided by Xander, using some of his residual army training and killed The Judge.
This axe was made for Angel team player Charles Gunn by some of his old vampire fighting pals. Completely hand made out of bits of metal, but very strong and durable and Gunn's killed many things with this axe ranging from vampires to demons. 
Again not a typical weapon to be seen, but the chainsaw has been used on an occasion to help save the Scoobies from a demonified house. Operated by Rupert Giles it was used to cut doors throughout the house.
Angel had to adopt the traditional weaponry of a knight, the lance and shield, to defeat a demon opponent on the streets of Los Angeles. The lance is used to thrust the opponent off their horse, and the shield shields from such occurrences.
When in the right hands a fishing line can be used as a deadly weapon with the hook landing the someone's face causing excruciating pain until the hook can be removed, if it is going to be removed. 
Voodoo a side branch of magic is used to do a variety of things, among them raise the dead. Using various items to represent the dead people and the right rituals the dead can be brought back to life.
The crebbil was a type of axe used in Lorne's home world, Pylea. Angel was asked to swing the crebbil. It is used for beheadings in public and is similar to any axe found on Earth.
This special weapon, known only as a scythe was forged many hundreds of years ago by a group of woman who called themselves The Guardians. This weapon was made only for the slayer to use. Originally found by Caleb, but Buffy subsequently stole it from him, the essence of the weapon was used to imbue the power of the slayer into every potential slayer across the globe.
Wesley had this made for him before her was back with Angel investigations. It's a stake, a sword, a grapple hook, anything you want it to be. Seems to be the Swiss army knife of weapons and is handy in any situation. It emerges from the arm, underneath clothing, with the flick of the wrist.
