The Kukri is the default melee weapon for the Sniper. It appears to be a large, curved knife.
Snipers proficient with this weapon will be able to take down Spies aiming to catch the player off guard, as well as other classes that may attempt to attack at close range.
The critical hit animation of the Kukri is a double-handed overhead swing, similar to the Pyro class's normal melee attack and the Eyelander's critical swing.
