Types of Swords in Minecraft
There are different types of swords that you can craft in Minecraft. Swords can be made from the most basic materials to the rarest items in the game. In Minecraft, you can make the following swords:
- Wooden Swords
- Stone Swords
- Iron Swords
- Gold Swords
- Diamond Swords
- Netherite Swords
Read on to understand how you can effortlessly make each of these swords in Minecraft.
In Minecraft, you can only get a sword and use it if you craft it. Technically, you’ll need a crafting table to make every sword except the Netherite sword, which requires a Smithing Table.
In addition, you’ll also need one stick to craft every sword except for the Netherite sword. Let’s look at how you can make each of the swords one by one.
How to Make a Wooden Sword in MC
You’ll need wooden planks and a stick to craft the wooden sword. You can use wood planks like wrapped, crimson, dark oak, acacia, jungle, birch, spruce, or oak planks. Wooden planks are very easy to get. All you need to do is punch a tree and get the oak wood. After that, you can turn one piece of oak wood into four wooden planks.
After getting the wooden planks, you can open your crafting menu, which looks like a grid.
2. Add items to the crafting table.
You can start by placing the wooden planks on the crafting table and stacking them on top of each other to craft sticks. After that, you can take two wooden planks and one stick, go to your crafting table and place them in the following pattern:
- In the 1st row, place one wooden plank in the center box.
- In the 2nd row, place one wooden plank in the center box.
- In the 3rd row, place one stick in the center box.
3. Move the sword to your inventory.
To use the sword, you’ll have to drag it down to your inventory
After making your wooden sword, any other sword except the Netherite sword follows the same procedure. The stick stays in the same place, but the material used varies based on the sword you’re creating.
How to Make a Stone Sword in MC
To make a stone sword, you’ll need two cobblestones. Therefore, you’ll have to mine two pieces of the stones. First, you will need to make a pickaxe that you can use to obtain the cobblestone you need for a stone sword. Cobblestones are not challenging to find because caves are lines with them. They are any of the gray blocks found in a cave. You’ll then place the two cobblestones replacing the wooden planks in step two above and a stick on the crafting table.
Iron Sword
To make an iron sword, you’ll have to mine and find iron blocks. To do this, you will gather three pieces of cobblestone to craft a stone pickaxe. After crafting the stone pickaxe, you’ll go into a mine to find two blocks of iron ore. Remember that an iron block can only be mined using a stone pickaxe or any pick above a stone pickaxe. After mining the iron ore, you can place them in the furnace to obtain iron ingots.
With the two iron ingots, open your crafting table and place the two ingots and a stick to make an iron sword.
How to Make a Golden Sword in MC
You can make a golden sword by mining and finding the golden blocks. You can only mine a golden block using an iron pickaxe. You can create an iron pickaxe using three iron ingots and two sticks. With the iron pickaxe, you can get gold blocks and extract gold ingots from them using a furnace. You will need two gold ingots and a stick to make a golden sword.
How to Make a Diamond Sword in MC
The diamond sword is the last type of sword you can make using the crafting table. The crafting process of the diamond sword is also the same. You will have to find and mine the diamond ore.
After that, you can extract diamonds using a furnace. Technically, you’ll need two diamonds. After extracting the diamonds, you can take the two diamonds together with a stick and put them on the crafting table to create a diamond sword.
How to Make a Netherite Sword in MC
After making the diamond sword, you can use it to make a nethrite sword. Making a netherite sword requires a different process from the swords discussed above. This is because it requires different items.
To make a nethrite sword, you will need a diamond sword, ancient debris, nethrite scrap, and gold ingots. You can take the following steps to create a netherite sword.
1. Get a netherite ingot
You can get a netherite ingot by going to Nether. Here, you will find four pieces of ancient debris. After getting the ancient debris, you’ll have to smelt it to create nethrite scrap. It would help if you kept in mind that you’ll need four nethrite scraps. With the four pieces of nethrite scrap and four gold ingots, you can make a netherite ingot by placing them on your crafting table.
2. Craft a smithing table
To create a nethrite ingot, you’ll need a smithing table. To craft a smithing table, get four wooden planks and two iron ingots. You can then craft the smithing table in your crafting table.
3. Make the netherite sword
After creating your smithing table, you can now make the netherite sword. To do this:
Step 1: Right-click on the smithing table, and you’ll find two boxes
Step 2: Put your netherite ingot in the box on the right.
Step 3: Place your diamond sword on the left empty box.
After that, you can now make a netherite sword.
