Now this is a knife!
The Sniper

The Bushwacka is a craftable melee weapon for the Sniper. It is an enormous "Bowie" knife with a serrated spine and a wooden handle with gold trim.

When attacking with this weapon in a situation where it would normally deliver a Mini-Crit, it will instead do a full-blown Critical hit. This makes it devastating when paired with Jarate, a friendly Buff Banner, or when a target previously hit with the Sydney Sleeper gets too close. On the other hand, the Sniper will have an additional 20% vulnerability to fire, making the Pyro a deadlier adversary than before.
