About Iron battleaxe
The Iron battleaxe is a free-to-play weapon in Old School RuneScape.
"A vicious looking axe"
Over the last 30 days it traded between 29 and 133 gp on the Grand Exchange, averaging 82 gp. About 1,986 units changed hands per day. The price is down 59.8% 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 109 gp, which is 32.9% above the 30-day average price, so buying and alching it covers its own cost before the nature rune.
