Repairing

Two axes of the same material can be combined in the crafting grid to combine their durability. This can also be done through use of the anvil, to preserve enchantments.

Usage

Mining

The axe is used to mine wood and wooden based blocks faster. It is not required to collect the blocks, like the pickaxe is for stone related blocks. Compared to the axe, breaking these things by hand is still pretty quick.

There are five types of axes, each with different mining speeds and durability.

Axe Material Uses Comments
Wooden axe
Wooden planks 60 Easiest axe to craft, however also the slowest. Can be found in the bonus chest and loot chest.
Stone axe
Cobblestone 130 Second easiest to craft, and slightly faster than the wooden axe. Can also be found in the bonus chest and loot chest.
Iron axe
Iron ingot 251 Slightly harder to craft, however quite fast.
Gold axe
Gold ingot 33 Fastest mining speed, however it is not recommended for regular use as it has very low durability, so it uses up a lot of gold quickly.
Diamond axe
Diamond 1500 Faster mining speed than the iron axe, however slightly slower than gold. It has a lot of durability for how much it costs.

Weapon

Axes can be used to deal more damage to mobs than by hand, however an axe does half a heart less damage than a sword of the same material, and uses up two durability points when used to deal damage to mobs. This makes them a less used weapon than swords because they are crafted with three tool materials as opposed to two, however they do less damage and do not last as long, making the sword the better option.

Enchanting

Axes can be enchanted directly through the enchantment table.

Enchantments applicable to axes include:

*Note: Silk touch and fortune are mutually exclusive.

Data Values

ID

Different axes have different item ids.

Here is a table:

Golden axe

Diamond axe
diamond_axe

Item Data

Item data is used to determine the durability of the axe. If using the /give command, this can be specified using the third parameter. Positive integers are how much durability the axe has taken away from full durability, and negative integers are how much durability the axe has left. For example, the command /give wooden_axe 1 10 gives one wooden axe with ten durability taken away from full durability.
