Primal hatchet
Primal hatchet is a tier 99 members main-hand weapon for melee, with a high alchemy value of 20,000 coins. No shop sells Primal hatchet and no monster drops it, so an Ironman makes it: it takes 100 Smithing and gives 1,400 Smithing XP, using Primal bar.

Ironman verdict
Where the materials come from: Primal bar (made with 100 Smithing). Making ten takes 10 × Primal bar and gives 14,000 Smithing XP. Reaching level 100 Smithing takes 14,391,160 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 99 as melee gear; compare it with every other piece on the Main-hand weapons list. Primal hatchet 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 20,000 coins.
