Bane mattock
Bane mattock is a tier 1 members main-hand weapon for melee, with a high alchemy value of 9,000 coins. No shop sells Bane mattock and no monster drops it, so an Ironman makes it: it takes 80 Smithing and gives 1,400 Smithing XP, using 2 × Bane bar.
“A bane tool for carefully uncovering and excavating artefacts.”

Ironman verdict
Where the materials come from: Bane bar (made with 80 Smithing). Making ten takes 20 × Bane bar and gives 14,000 Smithing XP. Reaching level 80 Smithing takes 1,986,068 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 1 as melee gear; compare it with every other piece on the Main-hand weapons list. Bane mattock is members-only. 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 9,000 coins.
