Elder rune gauntlets
Elder rune gauntlets is a tier 80 members item worn in the hands slot for melee, with a high alchemy value of 10,000 coins. No shop sells Elder rune gauntlets and no monster drops it, so an Ironman makes it: it takes 90 Smithing and gives 1,000 Smithing XP, using Elder rune bar.

Ironman verdict
Where the materials come from: Elder rune bar (made with 90 Smithing). Making ten takes 10 × Elder rune bar and gives 10,000 Smithing XP. Reaching level 90 Smithing takes 5,346,332 XP in total; the Smithing calculator counts the actions and materials to any target, and the Smithing guide has the Ironman training route. One recipe uses Elder rune gauntlets: Elder rune gauntlets + 1. It is worn in the hand slot at tier 80 as melee gear; compare it with every other piece on the Hands list. Elder rune gauntlets 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.
