Adamant throwing axe

Adamant throwing axe is a tier 40 free-to-play main-hand weapon for Ranged, with a high alchemy value of 12 coins. The simplest way for an Ironman to get Adamant throwing axe is to buy it: Bob's Brilliant Axes in Lumbridge sells it for 200 coins, and one other shop stocks it too.

You can also make it yourself: it takes 40 Smithing and gives 170 Smithing XP, using Adamant bar. Where the materials come from: Adamant bar (made with 40 Smithing). Making ten takes 10 × Adamant bar and gives 1,700 Smithing XP. Reaching level 40 Smithing takes 37,224 XP in total; the Smithing calculator counts the actions and materials to any target, and the Smithing guide has the Ironman training route. It is worn in the main-hand weapon slot at tier 40 as ranged gear; compare it with every other piece on the Main-hand weapons list. Adamant throwing axe is available on free-to-play worlds too. It is tradeable on normal accounts, but an Ironman cannot use the Grand Exchange or trade for it, so the sources on this page are the whole list. High Alchemy turns one into 12 coins, which is 188 less than the shop price, so buying it to alch does not pay.
