Black★Gold Saw

''This article is about the original concept for Black★Gold Saw. For other uses, see Black Gold Saw (OVA Character) or Black Gold Saw (TV Animation Character).''

Black★Gold Saw is an original character designed by huke.

Concept
Next to nothing about Black★Gold Saw at the time of the character's creation is known. Both descriptions for the illustration posted to huke's Pixiv and personal blog respectively state that it is the front cover for a doujinshi by huke, specifically HUKEPIC 04.

History
huke uploaded the illustration to Pixiv and his personal blog on January 30, 2008. The illustration of Black Gold Saw is chronologically the fourth in a number of illustrations uploaded by huke that follow a naming convention beginning with "ブラック★" (Black★), after Black★Devil Girl, Black★Matagi, and Black★Rock Shooter.

Black★Gold Saw would go on to be officially adapted into the Black★Rock Shooter multimedia franchise.

Trivia

 * Black★Gold Saw is the second character overall in the Black★Rock Shooter series.
 * Black★Gold Saw's original design resembled Black★Rock Shooter, with a red flame emanating from her right eye in contrast. Subsequent illustrations of the character by huke feature a more distinct redesign without the flame in her eye, one that her official incarnations are closely based on.
 * Black★Gold Saw's incarnations also do not have the star in their names.
