Oak shortbow
“A shortbow made out of oak, still effective.”
About this item
The oak shortbow is a shortbow stronger than the standard shortbow that can use arrows up to steel. It requires a Ranged level of 5 or higher to wield. Oak shortbows can be made at level 20 Fletching by using a knife on oak logs to cut them into an oak shortbow (u), granting 16.5 Fletching experience. Then, the player must string the unstrung oak shortbow with a bow string, granting another 16.5 experience.

Its high alch value of 60 does not cover the 153 nature rune it would burn, so alching is a loss before the item itself is counted.

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. Worth noting here: this item typically moves 11.11% in a day, which is more than the 6.67% you would be capturing — so holding it overnight risks more than the flip makes.
