Blade of the Bloodchief and Thornbite Staff.
He requires a bit of mana feed to keep him going, but he's pretty much incredible at that point.
I wish I had one.

@Malnourished_Student That isn't combat damage. And I recommend Strata Scythe.

Unfortunately, Banshee's Blade doesn't work with this, as it specifies combat damage. However, many other equipments are ridiculously good with this.

There's a fun bit of hidden plot between this card and Spikeshot Elder if you check the abilities and read the flavor text.

Cheaper than Spikeshot Elder, though the elder doesn't tap.

He needs pretty ideal situations to work, but he can be a terror when he does. Something as simple as a Bonesplitter gets you a lightning bolt every turn, while things like Scythe of the Wretched and Loxodon Warhammer can just get silly. Plus, you can wait to use the ability, meaning Claws of Valakut or Lightning Talons give you a nasty blocker with first strike who can bump off an opposing creature at the end of your opponent's turn. Plus, he makes a pretty nice use of Primal Cocoon.
Also, a generic goblin inexplicably shooting spikes out of his chest. What's not to like?

This card seems a little overpowered for a common, especially in a set with tons of cheap equipment. This guy must have been bonkers in Limited.
