The Scottish Handshake 1 - 100 Your enemies will think you're making peace, right up until the terrifying moment that their hand is very seriously cut! Here's the trick: It's a broken bottle!

“

Imagine if I hadn't been drunk! Ah heh. Click to listen — The Demoman

”

The Scottish Handshake is a community-made melee weapon for the Demoman. It is a brown glass rum bottle, apparently made by the Demoman's Degroot family ancestors in 1680.

This weapon functions in exactly the same way as the Bottle.

The Scottish Handshake was originally contributed under the name "Scotland Shard".

It was later contributed to the Steam Workshop after it was released, on Valve's request.

The backpack icon was contributed by Template:Steam profile link

Trivia
