Which Native Instruments piano includes a lot of piano mechanical noise (hammers and keys)?

I am looking for a Piano Kontakt instrument that includes a lot of extra piano noise (for example, the sounds of the springs and hammers inside the piano, or even the sounds of the keys being depressed). I remember a Kontakt-based piano that included these sounds, and I could have sworn it was a Native Instruments library included with Komplete, but I have not managed to find it yet. Is this ringing bells with anyone here?

At first I thought it might have been Una Corda or The Giant (regular or cinematic), but after checking both of those out again, I don't think they're what I'm remembering.

In 2014 I did a review of all of NI's pianos as of that time for my blog (apparently my account here is not new enough to post links. I've been a customer since 2010!), and I don't hear the sounds I'm looking for in any of those examples- but for those clips I was using the default preset for each piano, so those extra sounds might have been in a preset, or a control that was turned down in the default settings.

Does anyone know of a Kontakt piano instrument that lets you mix in the hammer and/or key sounds of the piano? (Even 3rd party is fine if it does what I'm looking for.)
