Nails can be made of any free play metal that can be smithed. Only steel nails are free-to-play, as they are used in the Dragon Slayer quest. Bronze, iron and black through to rune can only be used by members. To make nails, you need to use a bar of the same metal with an anvil, with a hammer in your inventory. Each bar yields 15 nails. Black nails cannot be smithed; they must be acquired by an alternative method such as they are a possible piece of loot from Zogre tombs, a drop from Zombie hands and a possible reward from a level 1 clue scroll. Nails are also used in the Construction skill, but only for objects that use normal planks. Players should bring more nails than needed as nails will bend occasionally. For construction, there is no advantage for one type over another, except that the higher nails bend less often.. To use nails, the player needs to have a hammer in their inventory.

Nails can also be used in Fletching to make brutal arrows.
