@Salubri:

You're right, I apologize. I was intending to show that Ichigo did not have a "physical" (meaning the actual sword and process of making it) zanpakuto forged from an asauchi. I went about that in an incorrect manner and didn't explain it the way I should have.

That being said. Just because he has a zanpakuto spirit within him doesn't mean he would be able to wield it as every shinigami has one but cannot use it as a weapon.
