Iron hatchet

Ironman verdict

At least 8 monsters drop it. The easiest is Zombie (level 12, 1/128); the best rate is Barbarian (level 21), at 6/128, about one every 21 kills. You can also make it yourself: it takes 10 Smithing and gives 40 Smithing XP, using Iron bar. Other sources include Ogre Coffin, H.A.M. Member (male), Guard (H.A.M.) and H.A.M. Member (female). Making ten takes 10 × Iron bar and gives 400 Smithing XP. Reaching level 10 Smithing takes 1,154 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 10 as melee gear; compare it with every other piece on the Main-hand weapons list. Iron hatchet 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 75 coins, which is 1,185 less than the shop price, so buying it to alch does not pay.
