The Russian Rubdown is a community-created special taunt for the Heavy.
When activated, the Heavy switches to his primary weapon and makes a short noise while stepping back with the gun, proceeding to kneel down on the ground, take out a large cloth, and polish the barrel of the weapon, as well as the ammo drum, on occasion. Upon finishing the taunt, Heavy puts away the cloth and stands back up, switching back to the weapon the player was using beforehand.
The Russian Rubdown was contributed to the Steam Workshop.

Update history
December 5, 2022 Patch (Smissmas 2022)
- The Russian Rubdown was added to the game.
Bugs
- Being forcibly locked to melee weapons, such as by eating the Buffalo Steak Sandvich or by playing in Medieval Mode, prevents the taunt from being able to switch to the player's currently equipped primary weapon. Activating the taunt in these states results in the Heavy holding his equipped melee weapon instead.[1][2]
- The same bug also occurs when attempting to activate the taunt when the player's primary weapon is out of ammo, resulting in the Heavy holding the player's currently held weapon instead.[3]
