About Steel scimitar
The Steel scimitar is a free-to-play weapon in Old School RuneScape.
"A vicious, curved sword"
Over the last 30 days it traded between 65 and 118 gp on the Grand Exchange, averaging 91 gp. About 5,299 units changed hands per day. The price is down 19.8% across that window. The Grand Exchange buy limit is 125 every 4 hours. Selling one at the average price costs 1 gp in Grand Exchange tax.
Casting High Level Alchemy returns 240 gp, which is 163.7% above the 30-day average price, so buying and alching it covers its own cost before the nature rune.
