The Razorback is an unlockable secondary weapon for the Sniper class. It is a hand-carved tribal shield, with a car battery taped to the back.
When equipped, this weapon grants the player immunity to a single backstab from a Spy, with said Spy being disabled for approximately 2 seconds and unable to switch weapons. The player will be alerted of the failed attack by a loud electrical sound, as well as being zoomed out of their scope if they were zoomed in, at which point they can retaliate. Upon a single backstab, the Razorback will break in half and fall off the player's back. Another Razorback can be acquired if the player goes to a resupply cabinet or if they respawn.
