About Steel longsword
The Steel longsword is a free-to-play weapon in Old School RuneScape.
"A razor sharp longsword"
Over the last 30 days it traded between 78 and 150 gp on the Grand Exchange, averaging 115 gp. About 2,951 units changed hands per day. The Grand Exchange buy limit is 125 every 4 hours. Selling one at the average price costs 2 gp in Grand Exchange tax.
Casting High Level Alchemy returns 300 gp, which is 160.9% above the 30-day average price, so buying and alching it covers its own cost before the nature rune.
