A runesword is a special weapon that is not normally generated. It exists to serve as the base item for Stormbringer, though it is also possible to wish for an ordinary one or find it in a bones file when you already have Stormbringer. When unidentified, a runesword appears as a runed broadsword, an appearance it shares with the elven broadsword. (It differs by being lighter, more expensive, providing less damage versus small monsters, and being made of iron.)
