“ | While boxing gloves were made to cushion your well-placed uppercuts, steel fists were made to beat the snot out of your enemies' pineal glands. "What are pineal glands?", you might ask! We at Mann Co have no idea ourselves, but what we do know is that these babies are made of freaking steel!

The Fists of Steel are a community-created melee weapon for the Heavy. They are a pair of large and bulky robotic gauntlets, appropriately team-colored, that encase the Heavy's hands.
While this weapon is active, it reduces damage from all non-melee sources, whether they are hitscan or projectile, by 40%. However, all melee attacks against the Heavy deal double damage when this weapon is active, and the Heavy takes two times longer to holster the Fists of Steel, compared to the default Fists. Additionally, the user receives a 40% healing rate penalty and a 40% overheal reduction from Medic's secondaries.
Most taunt attacks are in fact high-damage projectile or hitscan attacks and the damage reduction is sufficient to make those taunt attacks survivable. Taunts that are resolved as melee attacks (Barbarian Swing, Guitar Smash, and Fencing) are not affected by the damage reduction.
The weapon was originally created for the Fancy vs. Nasty Update as a replacement for the Killing Gloves of Boxing and has since been officially added to the game.
