The Ol' Snaggletooth is an unlockable headwear item for the Sniper released with the Polycount Pack. It is the head of a crocodile. The Sniper puts his head in through the bottom, and sees through the mouth.

As with all of the item set hats, Valve has stated they are going to create a specific crafting recipe for Ol' Snaggletooth.

Item set

This item is part of the Croc-o-Style Kit. When the entire set is worn, the set provides this additional bonus:

  • The wearer cannot be killed by headshots (If the wearer is hit by a fatal headshot, then his health falls to 1 HP.)

The other set items are:

Trivia

  • The hat may be a reference to the video game Template:W. In it the main character, Naked Snake, can wear a hat eerily similar to disguise himself in the swamps of Russia against a terrorist threat (making you go unnoticed when swimming through swamp environments).
  • This is actually the second Sniper hat that involves crocodile teeth, with the Trophy Belt wrapping around his default Slouch Hat. Given Snaggletooth's name (meaning a tooth that is broken or not in alignment with the others), and the large amounts of missing teeth and bottom jaw, it seems quite possible that the two hats come from the same animal.
  • The hat is of a crocodile's head, while Darwin's Danger Shield is the back of a crocodile. Aesthetically, they look like a single item when simultaneously equipped.
