Overview
Stone Axe is a tool in the Tools category of Minecraft, obtained through crafting it. It cannot be stacked, so each Stone Axe occupies a full inventory slot on its own. With a base durability of 131 uses, it can be repaired and enchanted.
Its 131-point durability sets how many actions it survives before breaking, and pairing it with Unbreaking multiplies that effective lifespan while Mending repairs it from collected experience. Stone gear is an early upgrade over wood, crafted cheaply from cobblestone and lasting noticeably longer in everyday use. When enchanted, it can carry 9 different enchantments, including Efficiency, Unbreaking, Mending, and Fortune. Of the 4 kinds of generated chest that can hold it, small underwater ruin chests are the best bet at about 28% per chest.
