2
Head to Grakohr's Cave, where you'll find Grakohr holding the companion hostage. You can either choose to attack or help him find a cure for his disease.
3
Choose the option to attack Grakohr and defeat him.
4
Once you take down Grakohr you can loot the Limb-Taker. If you decide to find him a cure you cannot claim the Limb-Taker, instead you will receive a Stoneheart Amulet.

Limb-Taker Best Enchantment

Blood-Soaked Blade for Attack Speed

Blood-Soaked Blade Killing an enemy gives you +50% Attack Speed for 8 seconds

The on-kill bonus from this enchantment elevates this Great Axe to one of the best in the game, offering excellent DPS and strong snowball potential against groups of enemies.

The alternative Enchantment, Executioner’s Strike, is less appealing since many enemies in the game are resistant to bleed. The raw damage gained from the faster swing rate is more valuable.

Limb-Taker Overview

Avowed -  Limb-Taker Limb-Taker Information
Weapon Type: Great Axe
Class: Unique
Weight: 9
Description
Aptly named by its wilder owner, this monstrous great axe requires equally monstrous strength to lift. This weapon was crafted by one of Solace's first forgemasters for a friend - an ogre that had saved his life out in the wilds of Galawain's Tusks. Though such friendships between kith and Ogres are uncommon, they aren't unheard of. Armed with this axe, the ogre became one of the deadliest creature in the Tusks.
