Overview
Blast Furnace is a block in the Utility Blocks category of Minecraft, obtained through crafting it. A single inventory slot holds a full stack of 64 Blast Furnace.
On the hardness scale Blast Furnace sits at 3.5. An explosion meets the same 3.5, so Blast Furnace is no safer against TNT than against a tool. Speed on Blast Furnace comes from a pickaxe, but the drop comes either way. Lit, Blast Furnace gives off light level 13.
