A saw blade
So much blood!
The Heavy, on what saw blades produce ...

Saw blades are an environmental hazard in Team Fortress 2. Sawmill remains the only map to feature them, however the blades have appeared in some custom maps. Saw blades typically run in set grooves along either side of a capture point, usually in the center of a map. They move slowly enough that players can move out of harm's way, but are fast enough to catch sluggish or distracted players unaware, especially when they battle around the control point.

If a player is hit by a saw blade or is touched by it, he will automatically be killed. Death occurs regardless of whether the player is ÜberCharged, is using the Dead Ringer or is subject to any other protective buff. If a player is near death and is subsequently hit by a saw blade, they will receive one death point and the player/s who damaged him will receive a "finished off" kill. The saw blade can also be used to earn the Foul Territory achievement by Scouts using the Sandman, as well as the Fall Classic achievement with the Force-A-Nature.
