Overview
Jack o'Lantern is a block in the Utility Blocks category of Minecraft, obtained through crafting it. A single inventory slot holds a full stack of 64 Jack o'Lantern.
Hardness 1 is what Jack o'Lantern is worth in the block data. Light level 15 comes off Jack o'Lantern without any help. An axe shortens the job on Jack o'Lantern, and no minimum material applies. Its blast resistance repeats that 1, so Jack o'Lantern offers no shelter.
