About the Diamond Shovel

The Diamond Shovel is a fast, long-lasting digging tool. It clears dirt, sand, gravel, snow, and clay quickly, and it has 1561 durability, so it will serve you far longer than an iron shovel.

You can also right-click a grass block, dirt, podzol, mycelium, or rooted dirt with it to turn the surface into a dirt path. Like other diamond tools, it can be enchanted with useful options such as Efficiency, Unbreaking, Silk Touch, Fortune, and Mending.

How to get the Diamond Shovel

The main way to get a Diamond Shovel is to craft it from one diamond and two sticks. Place the diamond in the top slot of the crafting grid, with the sticks below it.

Toolsmith villagers can also sell diamond shovels, and they sometimes show up in end city chests, but crafting is the most straightforward route.
