The weapon deals 50% less damage than the [[Kukri]], but causes the opponent to [[Bleeding|bleed]] and lose health for 6 seconds. Because of the reduced initial damage, direct contact with the opponent is not advised — the user should instead perform hit and run tactics to take down encroaching enemies like [[Spies]] that [[Cloak]] when attacked. Its [[critical hit]] animation is identical to that of the [[Kukri]] and [[Bushwacka]] — a double handed overhead swing, similar to the [[Pyro]]'s normal melee attack and the critical swing of the [[Eyelander]].

Let's see how much blood's in ya!
The Sniper on bleed damage

The Tribalman's Shiv is a community-created melee weapon for the Sniper. It is a stylized kukri[1] composed of reddish wood with a curved edge in front and a serrated edge on its broad side.

The weapon deals 50% less damage than the Kukri, but causes the opponent to bleed and lose health for 6 seconds. Because of the reduced initial damage, direct contact with the opponent is not advised — the user should instead perform hit and run tactics to take down encroaching enemies like Spies that cloak when attacked.

The kill icon for the Tribalman's Shiv was contributed by NeoDement.

The Tribalman's Shiv was later contributed to the Steam Workshop, at Valve's request.
