Ah, that's the stuff!
The Demoman on ammo's healing benefits

The Persian Persuader is a community-made melee weapon for the Demoman. It is a Template:W with a brass hilt and a bloodied blade.

Having the weapon equipped doubles the recharge rate of the charge of the Chargin' Targe and Splendid Screen, allowing for more frequent charging. In addition, it converts any ammo collected into health. This only affects ammo pickups, building gibs, and dropped weapons; ammo cannot be collected from Dispensers and cart. Resupply lockers are unaffected.

Similar to the Eyelander, this weapon has a large melee range and cannot roll for random critical hits unless forced by a Kritzkrieg, Victory, a Chargin' Targe or Splendid Screen.

Taunting with the Persian Persuader will perform the Demoman's Decapitation kill taunt.
