If you didn't get the two items from killing the boss while playing you'll have to quit the game and do it again. At least that's what I had to do.

Also the recipe for the Unusual Horseless Headless Horsemann's Headtaker is 2 Refined + Unusual Haunted Metal Scrap + Scotsman's Skullcutter. Apparently has the exact same stats as the eyelander.

Got me one of them Unusual Horseless Headless Horsemann's Headtaker (UHHHH for short). For being an unusual item, there's no particle effect or glow, which kinda sucks. Still fun to show off though.

it's unusual in name (and color) only

1. it has a recipe
2. far too easy recipe

[Didzo]

I have the ingredients, but I'm hesitant to use my metal.

I love metal and need more of it.
