The Smithing level at which the cost is equal is ; thus, using chitin is cheaper for level Smithing and lower, and using an armour stand is cheaper for level Smithing and higher. Together with the off-hand drygore mace and the off-hand drygore rapier, the off-hand drygore longsword is the strongest off-hand weapon to be found in-game in terms of damage per second, outside of Daemonheim. Upon death from a PvP activity, drygore weaponry will completely degrade before being dropped.
