When we first heard about the Team Fortress 2 Sniper Update, many of you Spy players thought, "Sweet! Easy kills!"

Oh, Valve knows how you think, and they've already got a special treat for Snipers. It's a painful new item that will make Spies think twice before they shove that switchblade up a Sniper's rear end.

Meet the Razorback!

All the tribal craftsmanship in the world, it turns out, cannot stop a modern butter knife. So we taped a car battery to it. Sure, the added weight of the redesigned Razorback’ll slow you down a little. But any poor sap dumb enough to backstab you while you’re sporting one is getting a surprise to the tune of 10,000 volts. Plus, if they want to stab you again, they’ll have to wait until their knife cools down. Which is lucky for you, since the Razorback collapses into a million finely crafted pieces after a single stab.
