A golden sword is a variant of sword crafted from gold ingots. It is the seventh-highest tier of sword, dealing the same damage as a wooden sword but having less durability. It can be admired by piglins, and has the highest enchantability.
Piglins and zombified piglins have an 8.5% chance of dropping it when naturally held. The dropped sword has a random durability. Each level of Looting used to kill the piglin increases the drop chance by 1%.

A sword can also be used to destroy certain blocks 50% quicker, sometimes much quicker than with fists. Using a sword to destroy any block that doesn't break instantly by hand decreases its durability by 2; this includes bamboo, despite that the sword is the fastest tool for breaking it.[1]
If a sword is enchanted with Silk Touch, either using Creative or commands, cobwebs hit by the sword drop the cobwebs themselves instead of the usual string, because a sword is classified as the proper tool for cobwebs.
In Creative mode, swords are unable to break blocks. However, they can still break placed entities such as minecarts, paintings, item frames,[Java Edition only] and armor stands.[2][3]

Two golden swords can be combined in an anvil. This preserves all enchantments on the sword, unlike using a crafting table or grindstone.
A golden sword can be repaired in an anvil by adding gold ingots, with each repair material restoring 25% the sword's maximum durability, rounded down. Two golden swords can also be combined in an anvil. Both methods preserve the sword's enchantments.

Piglins are attracted to golden swords, run toward any golden swords on the ground, and inspect them for 6 to 8 seconds before putting them in their inventory slot. During this time, the piglin does not attack nearby players, even if they are not wearing gold armor.
