You're a looooooong way from France, boy.
The Engineer welcoming the Spy

The Southern Hospitality is a community-created melee weapon for the Engineer. It is a modified pipe wrench with a spiked knuckle guard and a sharp metal spike on the top.

Striking an opponent with this weapon causes them to bleed for 5 seconds. As a downside, this weapon does not deliver random critical hits, and players wielding it have a 20% increase in fire vulnerability.

Switching from this weapon to the Gunslinger destroys the Sentry Gun the player has built. Similarly, switching to this weapon from the Gunslinger causes the Gunslinger's Combat Mini-Sentry Gun to be destroyed.
