How to get Horseless Headless Horsemann's Headtaker?
Is there any way to get it besides crafting as I have accidently deleted the achievement Haunted Metal Scrap a long time ago when I was new to this game. So, I no longer craft it.

Is there any way to get it for metals or something? Or if it can only be obtained by crafting then is there any way to get Haunted Metal Scrap again by purchasing?

No. The item is untradable and no one can sell it or buy it ( The headless horseman's headtaker) and so the Haunted metal

You can contact Steam Support and ask them to restore the item

They often do this in the case of Ghostly Gibus, Pyrovision, and other such achievement items

Just be nice and I'm sure they'll restore it for you

Pretty much this. They will only do it once use if they restore it, use it wisely.

Btw, the scrap is considered a special item so if you do get it back and want to craft the headtaker, you'll have to click a box to allow the use of special crafting items.

You can buy them with keys and metal here:

But they cost a lot
Edit: Ok not that much but considering it can be obtained for free it is.

From what I have heard, Steam doesn't do that anymore.

The only way I know to get a Headtaker is by finding someone who IS selling a tradable one for around 3-4 keys. The item is very rare and is a collector's item, so it may be hard to find.

I thought Headtaker is untradable. Since the Haunted metal itself untradable.

Probably some tradable scrap before they started becoming untradable.
I mean, apparently there are only 20007 out of over 6.8+ inventories.

They fixed it immediately. They can be traded by involving gift wrap

Gift Wrap hasn't worked on Untradable items for nearly 3 years now.
