About Black axe
The Black axe is a free-to-play weapon in Old School RuneScape.
"A sinister looking axe"
Over the last 30 days it traded between 719 and 1,205 gp on the Grand Exchange, averaging 1,072 gp. About 1,623 units changed hands per day. The price is down 35.7% across that window. The Grand Exchange buy limit is 40 every 4 hours. Selling one at the average price costs 21 gp in Grand Exchange tax.
Casting High Level Alchemy returns 230 gp, which is 78.5% below the 30-day average price, so alching a bought one loses money.
