Minecraft tools
How to make tools in minecraft survival mode.
Tools
A quick guide to the tools you will use in Minecraft.
Tools with Handles
These tools are all made with a handle of sticks, and a head of either wood planks , cobblestone , iron , diamond or gold.
Better materials work faster and last longer (with the exception of Gold, which is the fastest material but also the softest.) There is rarely a good reason to make a gold tool!
Iron and diamond are the best for most purposes.
| Material | Durability | Speed |
|---|---|---|
Wood | 60 uses | Slowest |
Stone | 132 uses | Slow |
Iron | 251 uses | Medium |
Diamond | 1562 uses | Fast |
Gold | 33 uses | Fastest |
Pickaxes
These are the tools that you will get the most use out of, and you’ll probably want to be using diamond pickaxes when doing a lot of mining.
Note that some materials can only be mined with a pickaxe of a good enough quality:
| Material | Durability | Mining notes |
|---|---|---|
Wood | 60 uses | |
Stone | 132 uses | Stone or better is needed to mine iron or lapis lazuli |
Iron | 251 uses | Iron or diamond is needed to mine gold, diamond or redsto
