So I read Blight's story and don't remember anything in it saying how he got this weird pickaxe thingy as his weapon. And i'm very curious how he did because it looks so interesting with this weird red stone in it.
More than likely, it was a cane from the "monastery" that he used because of his injury. When he became the Blight, the Entity needed to give him a weapon and saw how deadly it could be (because seriously, don't underestimate how lethal something with such a small point of impact can be. There was a reason why hitting someone with the crossguard of a sword is called a murder stroke).

This is probably the canon answer; it's a beautiful cane so it might've been from back in England but the monastery giving it to him for his injury makes a lot of sense. If anything, Talbot was like late thirties when he was taken to become a survivor, so he wouldn't need a cane for daily activities if it wasn't for the injury.
