The bow-sword is required in the Devious Minds quest, for the monk at the Paterdomus temple on the way to Canifis. Although the bow sword offers a wield option, the player unfortunately can't wield it, as attempting to do so produces an exclamation that "It's a bow and a sword...how am I supposed to use this?!" Asking the monk to teach the player how to use it produces the comment that "it's a foreign weapon" and "perhaps later" one of their warriors can teach them.

To make the bow-sword, you need to use a Mithril 2h sword on Doric's whetstone, directly east of Taverley to produce a Slender blade. To finish it off, players need to add a bow string to the sword.

This entire process requires 65 Smithing and 50 Fletching.

The bow-sword is later used by the Assassin to kill several Monks of Entrana and snatch the Relic.
