About Stone Shovel
A Stone Shovel is an early-game digging tool. It clears dirt, sand, gravel, snow, and similar soft blocks much faster than unarmed, so it is a solid upgrade before you have iron.
Key facts:
- Digs soft ground quickly and can turn grass blocks into dirt paths by using it on them.
- Has 131 uses before it breaks.
- Deals a little more melee damage than an empty hand, but it is mainly a digging tool.
Stone tools are a step up from wood, but they are still slower and more fragile than iron or diamond.
How to get Stone Shovel
You get a Stone Shovel by crafting it from one cobblestone and two sticks. Place the cobblestone in the top middle slot and the sticks in the two slots directly below it. You can also buy one from a novice toolsmith villager for an emerald, which is useful if you are short on ingredients or want one quickly.
