The '''Rune pickaxe''' is a [[pickaxe]] that is stronger than the [[Adamant pickaxe]]. It requires level 40 [[Attack]] to wield and level 41 [[Mining]] to mine with. It can be used in [[combat]] or in [[Mining]] to extract ore from rocks. It is also the strongest pickaxe available for non-members. (Members can acquire the [[Dragon pickaxe]] or [[Inferno Adze]] pickaxe - the former requires level 61 Mining; the latter requires level 41 Mining and level 92 Firemaking and mines at the same speed as rune pickaxe.) When a player mines with a rune pickaxe, they will obtain ores at a significantly faster rate than when using an Adamant pickaxe. Players can make a Rune pickaxe with the Smithing skill at level 90 by using 2 rune bars after the completion of the [[Perils of Ice Mountain]] quest. Rune pickaxes can be purchased from [[Nurmof]]'s Pickaxe Shop in the [[Dwarven Mine]] and at [[Tati]]'s [[Pickaxe-Is-Mine]] in [[Keldagrim]]. One is also received at the completion of the [[Between a Rock...]] quest. It is also a drop from [[Warped tortoise]]s. A rune pickaxe is required for the [[TokTz-Ket-Dill]] quest. Although, an update made it so a [[Dragon Pickaxe]] could be a substitute.

The Rune pickaxe can be gilded by the [[Liquid gold nymph]] after receiving the full [[Golden mining suit]], creating the [[Gilded rune pickaxe]]. It is cosmetic and gives no more bonuses than the regular pickaxe.

On [[9 September]] [[2009]], the Rune pickaxe received an update to change its equipped figure and item image.

==Trivia==
*When wielding the Rune Pickaxe, the attack screen shows that the [[combat style]] "Impale" is a stab attack, and that "Smash" is a crush attack; however, in battle it appears that, "Smash" shows the animation of a stab attack, and "Impale" shows the animation of a crush attack. This is because the pick-axe is rounded at the head and pointed at the sides.
*Before the [[Grand Exchange]], the rune pickaxe generally cost around 25,000 coins.
*The Rune Pickaxe used against TokTz-Ket-Dill in dominion tower is golden named (showing it's a member's item), unlike the normal Rune Pickaxe which is silver named.
