Crafting Guide
How to craft and use a Stone Sword in Minecraft
-
1
Gather materials
Mine at least two cobblestone with any pickaxe and make a stick from two wooden planks placed one above the other.
-
2
Open a crafting table
Open the 3x3 crafting table grid; the 2x2 inventory grid cannot make a Stone Sword.
-

Place the pattern
Put one cobblestone in the top cell and one in the middle of the same column, then a stick directly below to get a Stone Sword.
-
4
Enchant or repair
Use an enchanting table or anvil for Sharpness, Smite, or Unbreaking, and an anvil with cobblestone, blackstone, or cobbled deepslate to restore durability.
In both Java and Bedrock you can craft a Stone Sword from cobblestone, blackstone, or cobbled deepslate — all three count as stone-tier crafting material.
