Yes, this. I've got a sword & shield crusader cleric of Iomedae I've been itching to play in a Society game and I've been worried about him "presenting" his holy symbol when he wants to use his Valor variant channeling during battle.
Check out the "Channel Foci" from Adventuer's Armory.
The cleric can use the focus as a holy symbol (whether activated or not), though if it is a worn item rather than a held item she must touch the item with a free hand.
Two options for you are the Consecrated Weapon and the Sanctified Shield.

That's great stuff, Tristan. I've got that .pdf but I haven't ever really looked at it closely (especially not since Ultimate Equipment came out). Now I just need to get the extra gold to buy a new longsword (which seems the only logical choice for Iomedae) at +150 gp!

Giving this a bump...have an inquisitor of Gorum who'd absolutely LOVE to use her greatsword as her divine focus (invokes images of He-Man/Liono).
Kushiel Scourge of Apostates: "Let me introduce you to my not so little friend...I call him Gorum's Judgement...HOOOOOOO!"
There's a few more options available since this thread was started. A thematically appropriate option for you is probably from Advanced Class Guide.
Sacred
Price +1 bonus; Slotnone; CL 16th; Weight —; Aura strong transmutation
A sacred weapon is filled with divine energy, and acts as a holy symbol. When wielded by a creature that can cast divine spells, the weapon automatically displays an image of that creature's holy symbol, often as a glowing rune on the weapon's blade or along its haft.
Additionally, if the wielder has the blessings class feature, whenever he channels energy, he can choose one ally or ally's weapon within the area of the channeled energy and bestow upon that creature or weapon the benefits of one of his minor blessings at a cost of one use of that blessing.
