A diamond shovel is a variant of shovel that is crafted from diamonds. It is used to break dirt, sand, gravel and other related blocks faster, to create dirt paths from dirt-related blocks, and to extinguish campfires. It is the second-highest tier of shovel, having higher mining efficiency, attack damage, and durability than an iron shovel. It can be upgraded into a netherite shovel using a netherite ingot and netherite upgrade at a smithing table.
