Stick 'em With the Pointy End is an elite combat achievement which requires the player to kill Vorkath using melee weapons only.
Strategy
This achievement can be completed simultaneously along with The Fremennik Way.
This task can be easily completed using a melee-setup (can be done with any melee weapon). Do not equip a mage or ranged weapon to kill the undead spawn - just use the Crumble Undead spell on it without a magic weapon equipped. For more info see here.
It is worth using the spellbook filters to only show the combat spells and to have the Enable icon resizing option enabled; i.e. all the other spellbook options are disabled. The crumble undead spell icon will then be very large and this will prevent misclicks in the short time you have to attack the Zombified Spawn. Note if you are using a teleport spell to escape in case of problems you will want the teleport spells enabled as well which will add more icons to the spellbook display but should leave icons big.
