Quite a few people were getting the items while I was playing last night. Enough people that I saw Jarate, ambasador, huntsman and the razorback all in use a fair amount.
I'm just glad the items aren't linked to achievements anymore. I hated that and all the farming it promoted. Now it hasn't been so bad with people not really having a reason to stack a team with spys/snipers.
As a sidenote what sort of idiot spy would stab someone with the very huge and obvious razorback on them. Just sort of makes razorback useless because the player would think "Oh, he's got a razorback, let me just shoot his face off instead"
