Overview
Stone Sword is a weapon in the Weapons category of Minecraft, obtained through crafting it. It cannot be stacked, so each Stone Sword occupies a full inventory slot on its own the way tools and other damageable items do. With a base durability of 131 uses, it can be repaired and enchanted to extend its working life before it breaks. This item was added to the game in the early Alpha development period.
In this database, Stone Sword sits alongside 11 other Weapons entries, each with its own page. 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 10 different enchantments, including Sharpness, Smite, Bane of Arthropods, and Knockback, which together can dramatically change how it performs.
