The Half-Zatoichi is a melee weapon for the Soldier and Demoman. It appears as a samurai's katana with a circular guard with rounded notches and brown hilt wrapping.
Once active, the Half-Zatoichi cannot be switched to another weapon until a kill is made. Upon killing, the player's health is restored in full and the Half-Zatoichi will become decorated with the blood of one's now fallen target. Anyone wielding a Half-Zatoichi can instantly slay any enemy actively brandishing a Half-Zatoichi of their own.
The Half-Zatoichi was released with the Shogun Pack, awarded in Genuine quality to players who preordered Total War: SHOGUN 2 on Steam before March 15, 2011. It is also available through crafting, item drops, or purchase from the Mann Co. Store.

- The second blueprint simply makes a Demoman's melee weapon; there is still a chance of getting the Eyelander, Scotsman's Skullcutter, Pain Train, Ullapool Caber, or Claidheamh Mòr instead. There will be approximately a 16.67% chance of crafting this item using the second blueprint.

Update history
- The item was added to the game.
Bugs
- The Soldier's thumb clips through the guard of the weapon in third person view.
- The weapon uses the Soldier's RED sleeves in first person view for either team.
Trivia
- Template:W is a fictional character in many Japanese films, who is a very able swordsman even though he is blind. The "half" part of the name is because the Soldier and Demoman are visually impaired but not fully blind (through ill-fitting hats and a missing eye, respectively).
- The "duel" attribute to the Half-Zatoichi resembles the "single stroke battle" popularized in Japanese culture, where a battle between two katana-wielding warriors is decided with a single slash of a sword.
- The fact that the Half-Zatoichi cannot be "sheathed" until it makes a kill bears resemblance to the swords forged by Template:W — a famous swordsmith in 16th century Japan — which were thought to have an unnatural blood lust, refusing to be sheathed until they drew blood.
