'''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.<br />
<br />
Before an update in 2006 that removed finding items in random locations such as boxes, [[hay bales]], and [[Chest (disambiguation)|chests]], they could be found by repeatedly searching boxes, along with other useless junk like buttons, [[broken armour]], needles, and a few coins. This led some players to spend a lot of time searching the boxes by [[Tindel Marchant]] for rusty swords, and then having Tindel fix them. However, after the update, this was no longer possible.<br />

== Notes ==<br />
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 to none.</div>65.60.167.82
