A netherite axe is a late-game variant of axe obtained by upgrading a diamond axe using a netherite ingot and netherite upgrade at a smithing table. It can be used to cut down trees faster, to strip logs and scrape copper-based blocks, and as a melee weapon that disables shields. It is the highest tier of axe, having higher mining efficiency, attack damage, durability, and enchantability than a diamond axe.
Like other diamond tools, a diamond axe can be upgraded to a netherite axe, increasing its durability, mining efficiency and attack damage, as well as granting resistance to fire and lava when dropped as an item.
Netherite axes can break wood-related blocks faster than other tools. Breaking a block costs 1 durability.[note 1]
Using a netherite axe on a log, wood block, or block of bamboo turns it into a stripped log, stripped wood, or block of stripped bamboo, respectively. This uses 1 point of the axe's durability.
Using a netherite axe on a waxed or oxidized copper block removes the wax if it has any, or otherwise removes a level of oxidization. This uses 1 point of durability.
When used as a weapon, a netherite axe loses 2 durability points.
Attacking a shield user with an axe disables the use of the shield for 5 seconds. Vindicators, piglin brutes, or other mobs with commands always disable the player's shield. Damage done when using an axe as a weapon is more than that of a sword of the same tier, though they take longer than a sword to recover, resulting in lower DPS.

ceil(durability Γ· 2) Γ damage per hit. The durability is halved then ceiled because axes take double durability when used as a weapon, and the last 1 durability can also deal damage. The formula also ignores enchantments and critical hits, and assumes each attack is performed at maximum charge.

damage.
A netherite axe can be repaired in an anvil by adding netherite ingots, with each ingot restoring 25% of the axe's maximum durability, rounded down. Two netherite axes can also be combined in an anvil. Both methods preserve the axe's enchantments.
A netherite axe can receive the following enchantments:
