The K.G.B. (Killing Gloves of Boxing) are the unlockable melee weapon for the Heavy class. They are unlocked after you have gained 22 Heavy achievements. When the Heavy kills an enemy with the K.G.B. he is guaranteed critical hits for the next 5 seconds, and can kill additional enemies to further lengthen the boost time. This power-up also crosses over with other weapons, such as the Shotgun, so the Heavy could kill an enemy with the K.G.B. and then take out his Shotgun to blast away enemies from range. However, the K.G.B. has a 20% slower swinging speed, and coupled with the Heavy's slow movement speed makes this tactic risky.
The critical hit effect caused when killing someone counts towards the Supreme Soviet Achievement.
When the Heavy dies with his K.G.B. out, he drops his minigun, which can be picked up for ammo.
By default, left clicking throws a left-handed punch and right clicking throws a right-handed punch (this has no effect on gameplay). Critical hit punches appear as a right-handed uppercut animation.

Trivia
- The K.G.B.s taunt is a homage to Mr. Sandman's, Bald Bull's and Super Machoman's warm-up techniques in Punch Out!!.
- Several custom maps have been designed around the concept of 'boxing matches', in which all players use the K.G.B. only.
- K.G.B. was also the acronym for the Russian security agency, secret police and intelligence agency Komityet Gosudarstvennoy Bezopasnosty, which was disbanded in 1995.
- In the gcf files, there is a scrapped weapon mechanic which was intended for the KGB. With it, every kill would earn the Heavy, and his surrounding allies, 50 HP regenerated and an additional 10% to their critical hit chances. The downside being that the Heavy taunts after each and every successful KGB kill
- While Stunned, you can still attack by right-clicking.
