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.

Fletching an oak shortbow in the Tree Gnome Stronghold is a requirement for the Easy Western Provinces Diary.
