The '''Branding iron''' is a scrapped [[Melee]] weapon. It bears the initials '[[TF Industries|TF]]'. Due to its appearance and theme, it was first thought to have been intended for the [[Engineer]]. However, the Branding Iron appears to have been originally intended for the [[Pyro]], as within the game_sounds_weapon.txt file, the [[Fire Axe]] has the heading "Branding Iron". It has also been speculated that this weapon may have had the ability to 'mark' opponents, such as nosy [[Spy|Spies]].

Y'all just got branded.
The Engineer boasting his Pybro

The Branding Iron is a scrapped melee weapon for the Pyro. Although lacking most of its textures, its model is of an oversized branding iron which bears the initials 'TF' on its head.

Within game_sounds_weapons.txt, the Fire Axe has the heading BRANDING IRON, suggesting this weapon was scrapped in favor of the Axe, likely early into development, as it's only known texture lacks all detail besides ambient occlusion. This texture was found in the files for the Xbox 360 release of The Orange Box.
