About the Diamond Pickaxe
The Diamond Pickaxe is a high-tier mining tool and one of the most useful tools in the game. It can mine every ore and block that requires a pickaxe, including obsidian and ancient debris, which lower-tier pickaxes cannot break.
Key facts:
- Has 1561 durability.
- Required for mining obsidian and ancient debris.
- Supports strong enchantments like Fortune, Silk Touch, Efficiency, Unbreaking, and Mending.
A diamond pickaxe with Fortune or Silk Touch can make a big difference when you are gathering ores and other resources. It is the usual step before upgrading to netherite.

You can craft it at a crafting table with three diamonds in the top row and two sticks in the middle column below them. If you would rather trade, expert-level toolsmith villagers sell enchanted diamond pickaxes for emeralds. You can also find diamond pickaxes in end city chests.
