Your Eternal Reward is a community-made melee weapon for the Spy. It is a long, ornate dagger with distinctive oriental designs, a team-colored wooden handle, and a curved golden hilt.
This weapon retains the instant-kill backstab ability of the Knife, but with some tweaks. Upon a successful backstab, the Spy will instantaneously disguise as the target without the "puffs of smoke" disguise effect. Furthermore, the victim will not scream upon death, nor will a death notice appear to the enemy team. Also, the corpse of the victim will fade away almost instantly as if cloaking (unless that user has the Bombinomicon equiped, then there will be the exploding death effect with no fade). The process is so quick and unnoticeable that the Spy is never revealed between disguises; he swaps instantly to that of his victim's. Therefore, Sentry Guns will be unable to target the Spy between backstabs, making it easier to backstab unaware Engineers and sap his buildings. Upon backstabbing someone who is being healed by a Medic, the healing beam will automatically transfer to the Spy. The player still retains the ability to change and reload their disguise weapon, as with the butterfly knife. Altogether, backstabs become much more difficult to track, as victims disappear silently with the Spy instantly taking their place in battle.
However, the disguise effect is not activated if the target does not die from the backstab; namely, if the target is wearing a Razorback, has the Dead Ringer active when backstabbed, or is invulnerable. This also means that disguising as allied players is impossible. Non-backstab kills achieved will not grant the Spy the victim's disguise, but the kill will still be silent and the corpse of the victim will disappear. Returning to a Resupply locker will remove the current disguise of the Spy.
Since disguises are only available through backstabs, the player cannot disguise at will using the Disguise Kit.
Taunting with Your Eternal Reward equipped allows the Spy to perform a deadly Fencing maneuver. Kills made will be silent and the victim's corpse will disappear. However, the disguise effect will not be activated even if the taunt hits the victim's back.
The kill icon for the Your Eternal Reward was contributed by Template:Steam profile link.

Bugs
- Should the player die after switching Your Eternal Reward to the Knife, respawning may not be possible until they swap classes.
- Being auto-balanced or team-switched while holding Your Eternal Reward will cause the player to respawn with both the Disguise Kit and Your Eternal Reward equipped. Additionally, switching to the default Knife after switching teams once dead will result in the Disguise Kit being unavailable. These problems can be fixed upon death or accessing a Resupply locker.
- Should Your Eternal Reward be used to backstab an enemy who is then auto-balanced, the Spy will disguise as a friendly version of that class.
- Certain problems exist with the weapon when using DirectX 8; enemy bodies do not fade away when backstabbed, and the weapon is visible when the Spy is cloaked.
- Backstabbing anyone (who is not of the same class as the Spy's disguise) will occasionally disguise the Spy as that class holding their stock primary weapon instead of their currently equipped weapon.
- Additionally, backstabbing the person you are disguised as while they are holding their melee will occasionally cause your disguise's world model to become Your Eternal Reward.
- Backstabbing a disguised Spy using Your Eternal Reward will not give the achievement Counter Espionage.
- If a player raises the knife to stab and then switches their view to any world geometry, the knife will remain raised.[1]
- Carrying the Intelligence while disguised can still be performed upon acquiring it and backstabbing at the exact same time.[2]
- If a Spy backstabs an enemy with the Your Eternal Reward while undisguised and in line of sight of a Sentry Gun, the sentry will continue to fire at the Spy until the line of sight is lost.
- Backstabbing an enemy and being killed immediately thereafter will result in the disguise's alias, primary weapon and fake health being displayed on the HUD until the player respawns.
- Backstabbing an Engineer while he is hauling a Building will result in the killfeed displaying the Building's destruction to the enemy team.
- Your Eternal Reward clips through the Spy's sleeve in first person view.
Trivia
- Before the item was released, Robin Walker joked that Your Eternal Reward's drawback would be that it cannot facestab.[3]
- The name is a reference to a scene in the 1992 film Aladdin[4] where Jafar fools Aladdin with his disguise and then attempts to murder him with a dagger that Jafar refers to as "Your Eternal Reward."
- The entry's description in the Polycount Contest furthers this by mentioning the phrases "Phenominal(sic), Cosmic Power", and "Diamond in the Rough", all of which are used in the movie.
