Oddjob is a fictional villain in the James Bond franchise and one of the most popular Bond characters of all time. He appeared in the 1964 film, Goldfinger and is a henchman of Auric Goldfinger and carries out the physical and often brutal tasks required of him by his boss. He rarely speaks but is known for his brute strength. Oddjob appears in butler-like clothing: a black suit, tie and bowler hat. His bowler hat doubles as a weapon–it is razor edged and can slice through anything. Oddjob is played by Japanese American actor Harold Sakata.
