How to unlock the Tis but a flesh wound! achievement in Dead Island - Definitive Guide
Your best chance to sever a limb comes from edged weapons, or modified weapons with saw blades attached, such as the sickle from an early quest reward or the ripper pre-order incentive from Gamestop. Aim for the shoulders in a downward strike for arms or a horizontal strike just above the knees for legs.

This will come naturally and can only be obtained when using edged weapons. Blunt weapons will only break enemy limbs, not sever them. Heads, both arms and both legs count as limbs on a zombie. The zombie can either be dead or alive for it to count so you can sever its limbs when it is dead on the floor and it'll still count towards the 100 limbs. One thing you need to make sure of though is to always repair your edged weapons. They lose their effectiveness over time and they don't cut as well or cause as much damage. As with every trophy, you can check your progress in the "Extras" => "Trophies" part of the pause menu.
