The Scotsman's Skullcutter is a community-created melee weapon for the Demoman. It is a bloodied double-bevelled battle-axe with a wooden shaft and spiked crossguard.
The Scotsman's Skullcutter bears similarities to the Demoman's swords, with increased melee range and slower deploy/holster speeds. However it does not have random Critical hits disabled, meaning that it does not require a shield in order to deal Critical hits, unlike the swords. In addition, it deals 20% more damage than the Bottle. A single Critical hit will kill any class that isn't overhealed, excluding the Heavy.
To counter the increased range and damage of this weapon, it will slow the Demoman down from 280 units/second, 93% of normal speed while it is the active weapon, to 238 units/second, 79% of normal speed. This is 8 units/second faster than a Heavy and 2 units/second slower than a Soldier, making him the second slowest class while the weapon is active.
The creator, NeoDement , also contributed the kill icon.
