About Iron axe
The Iron axe is a free-to-play weapon in Old School RuneScape.
"A woodcutter's axe"
Over the last 30 days it traded between 57 and 139 gp on the Grand Exchange, averaging 112 gp. About 5,617 units changed hands per day. The price is down 22.0% across that window. The Grand Exchange buy limit is 40 every 4 hours. Selling one at the average price costs 2 gp in Grand Exchange tax.
Casting High Level Alchemy returns 33 gp, which is 70.5% below the 30-day average price, so alching a bought one loses money.
