Ironman verdict
Other sources include Barb-tailed kebbit and Divine deadfall trap. It is worn in the main-hand weapon slot as melee gear; compare it with every other piece on the Main-hand weapons list. Barb-tail harpoon 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 21 coins.
