The '''rune spear''' is a two-handed [[melee weapon]]. Unlike most other [[rune equipment]], rune spears are [[members]]-only. Rune spears can be created at a [[barbarian anvil]] with 90 [[Smithing]], requiring one [[runite bar]] and one [[magic log]], as well as partial completion of the [[Barbarian Training]] [[miniquest]]. Like most spears, the rune spear can be [[poison]]ed.

A rune spear is also a requirement for a [[Clue scroll (hard)|hard clue scroll]]. [[Ironmen]] can acquire it by completing [[Tai Bwo Wannai Trio]] for a rune spear (kp) then using a [[cleaning cloth]] on it, or, buying it from [[Mount Karuulm Weapon Shop]].

This item is a rare drop from the [[rare drop table]]. Wearing a [[ring of wealth]] will increase the chances of receiving one from the rare drop table.
