King Saw

King Saw is the name of the large sword used by Black★Gold Saw.

Original Concept
King Saw is a large black sword with a golden blade and a long handle. Its hilt is curved so that it resembles a pointed-down cresent. The underside has a saw-like, serrated edge, thus its name King Saw.

Black★Rock Shooter (OVA)
The revised King Saw has a somewhat shorter handle with a skull-like object as its pommel and a grey blade with a black saw-edge on its reverse side. The saw-edge is more noticeable than its original concept shown to the right.

Black★Rock Shooter (2012)
Like Black★Gold Saw, King Saw has a new design as well, with a very much shorter gold blade and a red sawblade on the hilt. The pommel is now a red skull-like object.

Black★Rock Shooter (OVA)
In the Black★Rock Shooter OVA, it starts as we see a fight between Black★Rock Shooter and Black★Gold Saw. King Saw is used for all the attacks Black★Gold Saw throws at Black★Rock Shooter. Then, in no more than a minute, Black★Gold Saw uses King Saw to stab Black★Rock Shooter in the stomach, and Black★Gold Saw leaves her behind, bringing King Saw with her.

Black★Rock Shooter (2012)
In the anime, Black Gold Saw summons a gigantic version of the blade in the first episode. It's also used in the second episode wherein she interrupts Black★Rock Shooter and Dead Master, and stopped the destruction of Chariot's world. It also drove Dead Master in a fissure.

Insane Black★Rock Shooter gets control of the weapon during her fight with Black★Gold Saw and uses it to make a portal to follow her. She attacks the hooded figures several times with the weapon, and attempted to attack Black★Gold Saw with it, but eventually loses it and reverts to her normal Insane Cannon Lance and Insane Blade Claw.

Abilities
As seen from the OVA and anime, King Saw has a multitude of abilities as well as physical attacks. Some of these are the ability to cut through reality and stop the flow of time. In addition, King Saw can also be transformed into a larger version in order to increase its attacking force.
