The Razorback is an unlockable secondary weapon for the Sniper. It appears as 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. If a backstab is attempted, the Spy will be unable to attack or Cloak for approximately 2 seconds, and will be 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. If the Sniper is killed within 5 seconds of his Razorback breaking, the Spy will be given a kill assist. Another Razorback can be acquired if the player goes to a resupply cabinet or if they respawn.
