Iron Tool Materials

Result

Iron Shovel

Ingredients match the published snapshot.

Usage

The shovel is the tool for dirt-family blocks, sand, gravel, clay and snow. Using it on a supported block with air above turns the surface into a dirt path; using it on a lit campfire extinguishes the fire and consumes one durability point. Snow blocks can also yield snowballs when mined.

Data: Usage
Mining speed	6
Attack damage	3.5
Attack speed	1
Durability	250
Enchantability	14
Flattenable blocks	Grass block, dirt, podzol, coarse dirt, mycelium and rooted dirt
Special interaction	Dirt path creation and campfire extinguishing

Smelting ingredient

An iron shovel can be smelted into one iron nugget. Repairing it with iron ingots at an anvil keeps the tool and its enchantments instead of consuming it as furnace input.

Data: Smelting ingredient
Smelting result	1 iron nugget
Repair material	Iron ingot

Enchantments

The shovel accepts Efficiency, Fortune, Silk Touch, Unbreaking and Mending. Fortune improves eligible block drops, while Silk Touch preserves a supported block instead of its normal drop.

Sounds

Shovel-specific interaction audio is emitted when the tool flattens a block into a path.

Data: Sounds
Flatten	item.shovel.flatten
