The Horseless Headless Horsemann's Headtaker is a melee weapon for the Demoman. It is the rustic, single-bladed axe wielded by the Horseless Headless Horsemann. The blade is chipped and worn in some places, sporting a malevolently-grinning face cut into its broad side that is similar to faces commonly carved on pumpkins for Halloween.
This weapon functions identically to the Eyelander, except for using the sounds used by the Horsemann's axe.
Taunting with the Horseless Headless Horsemann's Headtaker equipped results in the Barbarian Swing kill taunt.
The Horseless Headless Horsemann's Headtaker is available to anyone with a premium account who has acquired the Haunted Metal Scrap before or after the Scream Fortress Update by killing the Horsemann with a melee weapon; it may then be crafted through the prescribed blueprint.
