The Necro Smasher is an unlockable melee weapon equippable by all classes with the exception of the Spy. It is a slightly-cracked team-colored wooden mallet with a detached robotic arm hanging off the handle and a metal ring going around the head. When equipped on BLU the metal will appear a lighter shade of grey and the wood will appear a darker shade of brown. It is also a smaller version of the mallet and arm used for The World's Largest Strongman Machine on Carnival of Carnage. During the Carnival of Carnage bumper car mini game, the Horseless Headless Horsemann uses the Necro Smasher to push players around, intendedly off the course.

The Necro Smasher is automatically given to any player who obtains the Carnival of Carnage: Step Right Up Merasmachievement.
