'''Rusty swords''' are broken swords that need repair. They may be taken to [[Tindel]] Marchant at the harbour of [[Port Khazard]] in the Antiques Shop Stall to be polished and made into usable swords for 100 [[coins]] or repaired on a [[whetstone]] in a player-owned-house. However, using a whetstone holds the risk of the sword breaking. When fixed, you will receive a random sword, from [[bronze sword|bronze]] to [[rune sword|rune]], with [[iron]] being the most common. This can be beneficial for lower level [[player]]s who are low on cash. Successfully repairing a rusty sword gives 25 [[Smithing]] experience.

Rusty sword detail

Rusty swords are broken swords that need repair. They may be taken to Tindel Marchant at the harbour of Port Khazard in the Antiques Shop Stall to be polished and made into usable swords for 100 coins or repaired on a whetstone or on a armour stand in a player-owned-house. However, using a whetstone holds the risk of the sword breaking. When fixed, you will receive a random sword, from bronze to rune, with iron being the most common. This can be beneficial for lower level players who are low on cash. Successfully repairing a rusty sword gives 25 Smithing experience.

Ways to obtain

Notes

The type of sword produced from the whetstone increases with your Crafting level: 1-10 bronze, 11-20 iron, etc. Note that this only raises the percent of you getting the sword you want. For example, if you are Level 1 Crafting you still can obtain a rune sword but your chances are slim.
