Steel pickaxe
“Used for mining.”
About this item
The steel pickaxe is a pickaxe that mines on a 6-tick cycle, 1-tick faster than the iron pickaxe. It can be used in combat or in mining to mine rocks. The steel pickaxe requires 6 Mining to use, and 5 Attack to equip. Players lacking 5 Attack can still use it for mining.

Measured with medians rather than averages, because one spike — an update, a streamer, a brief squeeze — drags an average around for weeks afterwards and makes everything since look ordinary.
