Overview
Sandstone Stairs are blocks in the Utility Blocks category of Minecraft, obtained through crafting them and Stonecutter. A single inventory slot holds a full stack of 64 Sandstone Stairs.
Sandstone Stairs are 0.8-hardness blocks. Sandstone Stairs are tagged for a pickaxe, and nothing is said about which one. Their blast resistance repeats that 0.8, so Sandstone Stairs offer no shelter.
