The Conniver's Kunai is a melee weapon for the Spy. It is based off the Japanese ninja Template:W, originally used as a farming tool.

Equipping this weapon reduces the user's max health by 65, thereby, lowering the Spy's health to 60. This makes the Spy the class with the least amount of max health in comparison to the other classes. Upon a backstab, the victim's health, upon their death, is added to the user's own health in the form of an overheal, capping out at a maximum of 180. This functions the same as a standard overheal, degenerating over time.

The Conniver's Kunai was released with the Shogun Pack, awarded in Genuine quality to players who preordered Total War: SHOGUN 2 on Steam before March 15, 2011. It is also available through crafting, item drops, or purchase from the Mann Co. Store.
