About Black battleaxe
The Black battleaxe is a free-to-play weapon in Old School RuneScape.
"A vicious looking axe"
Over the last 30 days it traded between 319 and 583 gp on the Grand Exchange, averaging 414 gp. About 837 units changed hands per day. The price is up 18.1% across that window. The Grand Exchange buy limit is 125 every 4 hours. Selling one at the average price costs 8 gp in Grand Exchange tax.
Casting High Level Alchemy returns 748 gp, which is 80.7% above the 30-day average price, so buying and alching it covers its own cost before the nature rune.
