Villager gifts [ edit | edit source ]

In Java Edition, toolsmith villagers throw stone pickaxes at players under the Hero of the Village effect.

Usage [ edit | edit source ]

Mining [ edit | edit source ]

A pickaxe is used to break stone-based and metal-based materials faster. Breaking a block with a pickaxe consumes one
use (one durability point). No durability is consumed for blocks that break instantly, like torches and flowers. Pickaxes have
different amounts of uses based on the type:

Wooden: 59 in Java Edition, 60 in Bedrock Edition;


Stone: 131 in Java Edition, 132 in Bedrock Edition;
Iron: 250 in Java Edition, 251 in Bedrock Edition;
Golden: 32 in Java Edition, 33 in Bedrock Edition;
Diamond: 1,561 in Java Edition, 1,562 in Bedrock Edition;
Netherite: 2,031 in Java Edition, 2,032 in Bedrock Edition.

Different qualities of pickaxe are required to successfully harvest certain ores and blocks. For example, while stone can be
mined with any pickaxe, gold ore must be mined with an iron pickaxe, diamond pickaxe, or netherite pickaxe, or else the
player harvests no ore. Different pickaxes also mine many materials at different speeds:

Speed [ edit | edit source ]

The following table shows the number of seconds required to break each type of block.

A red background indicates that the block cannot be harvested with that type of pickaxe.
A yellow background indicates that the block cannot be harvested with that type of pickaxe, but still drops something.
A green background indicates that the block can be harvested with that type of pickaxe.

Times to break blocks by pickaxe [show]

1. ↑ Chemistry tables are slow to break by hand, similar to blocks that require a pickaxe to mine. However, they still
drop as items.

Weapon [ edit | edit source ]

A pickaxe loses 2 points of durability when used as a weapon. Pickaxes may be used as a weapon, and in Java Edition,
they have an attack speed higher than that of an axe, shovel, or trident, but lower than that of a sword or mace.

Java Edition [ edit | edit source ]

Pickaxes have an attack speed of 1.2 and take 0.85 seconds to recover.

1. ↑ The formula to find the total lifetime damage is ceil(durability ÷ 2) × damage per hit . The
durability is halved then ceiled because pickaxes 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.

Bedrock Edition [ edit | edit source ]

In Bedrock Edition, pickaxes have no attack cooldown, and deal the following damage:
