A stone sword is a variant of sword crafted from cobblestone, blackstone, or cobbled deepslate. It is the fifth-highest tier of sword, dealing the same damage as a copper sword but having less durability.
Stone swords are crafted with a stick and any combination of two cobblestone, blackstone, or cobbled deepslate (i.e. 2 cobblestone, or 1 blackstone + 1 cobbled deepslate, etc.).
Wither skeletons can spawn with a stone sword and have an 8.5% chance of dropping them upon death caused by player. This chance is increased by 1% per level of Looting, up to a maximum of 11.5% with Looting III. The dropped sword is usually badly damaged.
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.
Pressing attack while holding a stone sword inflicts damage on both mobs and other players. Upon damaging a mob or player, the stone sword's durability decreases by 1.
Attacking a boat or a minecart with a stone sword instantly destroys it β[Java Edition only], without decreasing the sword's durability.
In Java Edition, stone swords deal 5HPπ β€οΈ
π β€οΈ
π π
base damage, have an attack speed of 1.6 and take 12 game ticks (0.6 seconds) to recover.
In Bedrock Edition, stone swords have no attack cooldown or sweep attack, and deal 6HPπ β€οΈ
π β€οΈ
π β€οΈ
base damage.
The damage that a stone sword enchanted with Sharpness V does on a non-critical hit is 8 in Java Edition and 12.25 in Bedrock Edition.
In Creative mode, swords are unable to break blocks. However, they can still break placed entities such as minecarts, paintings, item frames,β[Java Edition only] and armor stands.[2][3]

The durability of the two swords is added together, plus extra 6 points of durability. |
Two stone swords can be combined in an anvil. This preserves all enchantments on the sword, unlike using a crafting table or grindstone.
A stone sword can be repaired in an anvil by using cobblestone, blackstone or cobbled deepslate as the 2nd ingredient. Each material restores 25% of the sword's maximum durability, rounded down. Using an anvil to repair leaves all of the sword's enchantments on it.
A stone sword can receive the following enchantments:
