About Steel knife
The Steel knife is a members-only weapon in Old School RuneScape.
"A finely balanced throwing knife"
Over the last 30 days it traded between 54 and 72 gp on the Grand Exchange, averaging 64 gp. About 45,284 units changed hands per day. The price is up 14.5% across that window. The Grand Exchange buy limit is 7,000 every 4 hours. Selling one at the average price costs 1 gp in Grand Exchange tax.
Casting High Level Alchemy returns 6 gp, which is 90.6% below the 30-day average price, so alching a bought one loses money.
