About the Stone Sword
The Stone Sword is an early melee weapon and a reliable upgrade from wood. It deals more damage than a wooden or gold sword, has decent durability, and swings at the same speed as other swords.
- Stronger than wood and gold, but weaker than iron.
- Cheap to make once you have stone available.
- Handy for cutting cobwebs quickly.
It is a good workhorse before you have enough iron for a better weapon.
How to get the Stone Sword
Craft it at a crafting table with one stick and two stone-tier blocks. Cobblestone is the usual material, though blackstone and cobbled deepslate also work. Because the recipe is three slots tall, you need a crafting table rather than your 2x2 inventory grid.
