The keenblade is a two-handed sword that can be obtained from Gudrik in Port Sarim, along with the rest of the pathfinder armour set. It was previously obtained after completing the path. Its stats are the same as those of an iron 2h sword. Although this weapon only requires 5 Attack, it has the stats of a level 10 weapon. This weapon has a special attack, as do its ranged and magic equivalents, the Quickbow and Mindspike.

Trivia

• A blade that is referred to as "keen" means that it has been sharpened more so than a normal blade of the same type.
• Before the steel 2h sword's model was changed it was visually similar to the Keenblade, other than a slightly jagged blade and a red gem set on the handle instead of a blue one. However, stat-wise the Keenblade is much weaker.
• Before the Evolution of Combat, this weapon used to have a different special attack, which would do a guaranteed 50 life points of damage. It would hit a 30 through Protect from Melee and 25 through the Staff of light's special.
• The animation of this weapon's special attack is the same as the Saradomin godsword, though its effect is different.
• Before the release of Ashdale, this weapon was obtained as a drop from the troll general, Morningstar, who was fought and killed during the Troll Warzone tutorial.
