The Half-Zatoichi is a community-created promotional melee weapon for the Soldier and Demoman. It is a katana with a circular crossguard with rounded notches, adorned with brown grip wrapping.
Upon killing an enemy, the blade becomes blood-stained and the wielder's health increases by 50% of their max health, potentially granting overheal (100 HP is granted to the Soldier, 110 HP to a Soldier with the Battalion's Backup equipped, 88 HP to a Demoman, and 100 HP to a Demoman with the Bootlegger or the Ali Baba's Wee Booties equipped). Like its description suggests, Soldiers and Demomen wielding a Half-Zatoichi can instantly kill each other in one hit. However, the weapon is Honorbound: attempting to switch away from the sword (when completely deployed) without killing another player results in a loss of 50 health. If the player's health falls and becomes less than or equal to 50 HP, the weapon cannot be holstered until the player gets a kill or recovers enough health. The Half-Zatoichi is also unable to deal random critical hits.
The Half-Zatoichi has a 50% larger melee range and a 75% longer deploy/holster time, like the other swords for the Demoman. This makes it the Soldier's only weapon with extended melee range other than the Disciplinary Action.
Taunting as a Demoman with the Half-Zatoichi equipped results in the Barbarian Swing kill taunt. Successfully killing someone with the taunt grants the healing, and allows the Demoman to sheath the weapon without taking damage.
This item was awarded in Genuine quality to players who pre-purchased Total War: Shogun 2 on Steam before March 15, 2011.

December 17, 2015 Patch (Tough Break Update)
- Changed attributes:
- Now considered a sword (increased holster and deploy time and increased range).
- Honorbound changed. Deals 50 self-damage on holster if no kill was made. Cannot be holstered if player is below 50 life and no kill was made.
- 100% life restore on kill changed to 50% health gain on kill that can result in overheal.
- No random crits.
- Fixed the Half-Zatoichi giving more overheal then(sic) intended. Max overheal is 1.5x base health.
Unused content
- An unused kill icon exists for Half-Zatoichi duel kills.
Bugs
- The loadout screen shows the Demoman wielding the Half-Zatoichi with one hand instead of with both hands. A Spy disguised as a Demoman wields the Half-Zatoichi one-handed as well. It may also appear invisible when selected as the active weapon wielded by a Spy disguised as a Soldier or Demoman.
- In Mannpower, the Grappling Hook can be used via the action key when below 50 Health, killing the player.
- Taunting with Shred Alert, Fresh Brewed Victory, Rocket Jockey, or Spent Well Spirits while using the bloodied Half-Zatoichi taunts with the RED version of the weapon, irrespective of the player's team.
Trivia
- Zatoichi is a fictional blind swordsman who appears in many Japanese films. The term "Half-Zatoichi" is a reference to the Demoman having only one eye, and the Soldier having his helmet over his eyes as opposed to being completely blind.
- When performing the Barbarian Swing taunt kill as Demoman, the swing that decapitates the victim is performed with the dull side of the sword.
- In the censored version of Team Fortress 2, the weapon is not bloodied after a kill.
- Even though the katana is a two-handed weapon, the Soldier wields it with only one hand.
