Netherite Shovel at a glance
Netherite Shovel comes from smithing, and Tools is where it sits as a tool. One slot, one Netherite Shovel: nothing stacks here, and nine of them fill a hotbar. 27 chest slots take 27 of them. 2031 uses are what Netherite Shovel has before a repair, and every hit takes one off; it takes enchantments too.
Its 2031-point durability sets how many actions Netherite Shovel survives before breaking, and Unbreaking multiplies those 2031 while Mending repairs Netherite Shovel from the experience you pick up. Netherite gear is the top tier in the game: it is fireproof, floats in lava without burning, and offers the highest durability and combat or mining performance of any material. 6 enchantments apply to Netherite Shovel, starting with Efficiency, Fortune, Silk Touch, and Unbreaking. It sits between Netherite Pickaxe and Pufferfish Bucket in Tools, number 24 of 35 there.
