How to upgrade the rusty sword in Stardew Valley
Ah, the good ol' rusty sword. Classic starter gear! You can't actually upgrade the rusty sword itself in Stardew Valley. Instead, you'll need to venture deeper into the mines. As you explore, you'll find better weapons either by defeating monsters or in chests. So, keep pushing through those levels, and you'll soon find something much better. Happy mining!

From personal experience, ditch that rusty thing as soon as possible. Found a wooden sword around level 10 in the mines and it was a game-changer. Keep an eye out for chests and tougher enemies that drop better gear!
Short and sweet: You don't. Ditch the rusty sword when you find something better in the mines.
