Bronze sword
Bronze sword is a tier 5 free-to-play main-hand weapon for melee, with a high alchemy value of 100 coins. The simplest way for an Ironman to get Bronze sword is to buy it: Beefy Bill's Supplies in Lumbridge sells it for 1,680 coins, and 5 other shops stock it too.
“A razor-sharp sword.”

Ironman verdict
Only one monster drops it: Zombie (New Varrock), at 1/1,024 (about one every 1,024 kills). You can also make it yourself: it takes 1 Smithing and gives 30 Smithing XP, using 2 × Bronze bar. Other sources include Rusty sword, New Varrock guard captain and Zombie (New Varrock). Making ten takes 20 × Bronze bar and gives 300 Smithing XP. One recipe uses Bronze sword: Oxidised sword. It is worn in the main-hand weapon slot at tier 5 as melee gear; compare it with every other piece on the Main-hand weapons list. Bronze sword 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 100 coins, which is 1,580 less than the shop price, so buying it to alch does not pay.
