How to get Sawtooth Circlet in Hollow Knight Silksong

Hollow Knight Silksong has some brutal enemies to combat, and the Sawtooth Circlet will allow you to deal damage from a distance.

When it comes to tackling enemies, you’ll be mostly relying on your skills and your Needle. Upgrading your Needle makes combatting the more challenging enemies easier, but you can use other options like the Sawtooth Circlet to unlock new ways to do damage.

Let’s learn more about how it works and explore how to obtain it.

How does the Sawtooth Circlet work in Hollow Knight Silksong?

The Sawtooth Circlet is more of a weapon than a standard item. Here’s the official in-game description of the item.

Flexible belt of serrated metal teeth, able to affixed to the hem of a cloak. Flaring the cloak will spin the blades, damaging surrounding enemies.

While the in-game description can be confusing, the Sawtooth Circlet lets you run blades that rush towards the enemies with your cloak. These blades, sharp in nature, will do damage when they rotate and strike the monsters. While they don’t travel long distances, the blades prevent an onrushing enemy from closing in and landing blows.

The Sawtooth Circlet fits into your Blue tool slot, so keep that in mind. Let’s find out how to acquire it.

The Architect is a mysterious entity who crafts several items for you to use. The Sawtooth Circlet is also available on the list, and you can purchase it by paying 230 Rosaries and one unit of Craftmetal. After adding it to the inventory, the only remaining task is to equip it in the Blue Slot.
