You're a looooooong way from France, boy.
The Engineer welcoming the Spy

The Southern Hospitality is a community-created melee weapon for the Engineer. It is a modified pipe wrench with a spiked knuckle guard and a sharp metal spike on the top.

Striking an opponent with this weapon causes them to bleed for five seconds. As a downside, this weapon does not deliver random critical hits, and players wielding it have a 20% increase in fire vulnerability.

Switching from this weapon to the Gunslinger will destroy the sentry the player has built.

Trivia

  • The Southern Hospitality, as with the Frontier Justice, the Wrangler and the Gunslinger, appears to have been designed by Radigan Conagher, the Engineer's grandfather. This is shown by a hidden link in the Engineer Update.
  • The name "Southern Hospitality" is derived from the same phrase describing the warm and welcoming American South.
  • WatchMaker| submitted the model to the Contribute page under the name "Beat All".[citation needed]
  • With the Mann-Conomy Update and by extension the release of the Mann Co. Store, the creator of the Southern Hospitality emailed Valve co-founder and managing director Gabe Newell to thank him for his item's inclusion. Newell responded to this by purchasing 10,000 Southern Hospitalities from the Mann Co. Store.
  • Unlike other Engineer melee weapons, the Strange variant of the Southern Hospitality ranks up based on melee kills, not Sentry Gun kills.
