This article is about the all-class weapon. For other uses, see Saxxy (disambiguation).
What we can tell you is that all twenty of tonight's winners are going home with a handsome 100% Australium-plated Saxton Hale statuette, which'll look great on your virtual mantle, and even better buried waist-deep in the skull of one of your enemies, since it's also an in-game melee weapon.
Saxxy Awards publicity blurb

The Saxxy is a limited melee weapon for all classes. It is a 100% Australium-plated statuette of Saxton Hale set into a small plinth.

This weapon functions identically to the wielder's default melee weapon, but with an added cosmetic function: any enemies killed with it produce motionless statues of pure Australium, instead of the normal ragdolls. Any jiggle bones on enemy ragdolls are also frozen by this effect. In addition, a special sound effect unique to this weapon, the Golden Wrench, and the Golden Frying Pan is played upon killing any enemy. However, unlike the Spy's other melee weapons, the Saxxy does not have a unique raising animation to indicate an enemy can be backstabbed.

Upon killing an enemy as Engineer, unique voice lines play.

The Saxxy was awarded to winners of the Annual Saxxy Awards, a filmmaking contest hosted by Valve. Saxxys were bestowed upon all contributors in winning entries created by more than one player.
