Shahanshah publicity blurb

The Shahanshah (/ˈʃɑːhɑːnʃɑː/ shah-han-shah) is a community-created melee weapon for the Sniper. It is a yatagan with a leather hilt that is reinforced by dull golden bindings and a gold hand guard.

This weapon rewards players at the cost of risk. When the player's health is equal to or above 50% of the maximum, the Shahanshah deals 25% less damage than the Kukri. However, should the player have less than 50% of their max health, the weapon deals 25% more damage.

The Shahanshah was previously tested in the Team Fortress 2 Beta as the Beta Sniper Club 1.
