'''Haunted Metal Scrap''' is obtainable in-game but only with the Unusual [[rarity]], as part of the [[Scream Fortress]] Update. To obtain this item, you must land at least one blow on the [[Horseless Headless Horsemann]] with a melee weapon. If you die after hitting the headless horseman, before he dies, you will not get the achievement, unless you hit him again.
 
You can only get one, as it is linked to the achievement, not simply by killing the [[Horseless Headless Horsemann]] with a melee weapon.

The Haunted Metal Scrap

The Haunted Metal Scrap is a crafting ingredient introduced during the Scream Fortress Update. It is represented by a triangular pile of purple ingots, with a few broken pieces around it.

This item is awarded to players who earn the Gored! achievement by landing one of the killing blows on the Horseless Headless Horsemann with a melee weapon while remaining alive during the boss' death. Only a single Unusual Haunted Metal Scrap is obtainable per individual account.

It can still be obtained by spawning the Horseless Headless Horsemann and getting the achievement (custom maps that always spawn the boss make it possible to get this year round). The crafting blueprints in which it is used remain active.
