Mithril scimitar
Mithril scimitar is a tier 30 free-to-play main-hand weapon for melee, with a high alchemy value of 300 coins. The simplest way for an Ironman to get Mithril scimitar is to buy it: Zeke's Superior Scimitars in Al Kharid sells it for 5,010 coins, and 4 other shops stock it too.

Ironman verdict
Only one monster drops it: Customs Officer (Rocking Out) (level 37), at 1/2 (about one every 2 kills). You can also make it yourself: it takes 30 Smithing and gives 240 Smithing XP, using 2 × Mithril bar. Other sources include Mystery box (random events), Rusty scimitar, Former vampyre and Sarcophagus (Jaldraocht Pyramid). Making ten takes 20 × Mithril bar and gives 2,400 Smithing XP. Reaching level 30 Smithing takes 13,363 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 Mithril scimitar: Mithril scimitar + 1. It is worn in the main-hand weapon slot at tier 30 as melee gear; compare it with every other piece on the Main-hand weapons list. Mithril scimitar 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 300 coins, which is 4,710 less than the shop price, so buying it to alch does not pay.
