About Mithril sword
The Mithril sword is a free-to-play weapon in Old School RuneScape.
"A razor sharp sword"
Over the last 30 days it traded between 202 and 366 gp on the Grand Exchange, averaging 284 gp. About 1,489 units changed hands per day. The price is down 25.2% across that window. The Grand Exchange buy limit is 125 every 4 hours. Selling one at the average price costs 5 gp in Grand Exchange tax.
Casting High Level Alchemy returns 507 gp, which is 78.5% above the 30-day average price, so buying and alching it covers its own cost before the nature rune.
