Chucklenuts is a community-created cosmetic item for the Scout. It is a red (RED) or gray (BLU) squirrel that sits on the Scout's right shoulder; a team-colored neckerchief is tied around its neck, fastened with a golden woggle imprinted with the Team Fortress logo. The squirrel's head and tail sway with the player's movements.
When players equipped with this item kill an enemy unassisted by another player, the killfeed shows everyone in Pyroland that it gets the assist, with its custom name if it has one.
Chucklenuts was contributed to the Steam Workshop.

Trivia

- Upon stunning an enemy, he states "Think fast, Chucklenuts!"
- When getting a Revenge kill, he says "Ya like that, Chucklenuts?"
- The design of Chucklenuts's neckerchief is based on neckerchiefs worn by members of the Scouting Association as part of their uniform.
- The scarf also serves as a nod to the Squirrel Scouts from The Emperor's New Groove.
