Shovel

The Shovel is a close combat weapon in Left 4 Dead 2, introduced in The Last Stand Community Update.

It is commonly found in The Last Stand campaign, and also appears in farmland areas as well (such as Blood Harvest). It is not found in campaigns with urban settings (such as Dead Center).

The Shovel is classified as a Bludgeoning weapon. It spews blood on the screen, but never dismantles or mutilates the Infected.
