Which items take Punch

Enchanting table

Bows, and books.

Not from the table

None beyond the table items.

The table offers an enchantment only on its primary items; an anvil can add it to anything that can hold it. See every enchantment an item can hold in the max enchantments by item tool.

Conflicts

Nothing: Punch combines with every other enchantment its item can hold.

Enchanting table odds

Chance that one offer in the bottom slot (level 30, 15 bookshelves) includes Punch, on a bow and on a book.

Power window per level

A table roll picks the highest level whose window contains the roll’s modified enchantment level. These are the registry’s min_cost and max_cost, not the level cost shown on the table.

Anvil cost

An anvil charges ×4 per level when Punch comes from another item and ×2 per level when it comes from a book, so adding Punch II from a book costs 4 levels before any prior-work penalty. Work out a full combine in the anvil cost calculator.

Command

Hold the item in your main hand and run this with cheats on. /enchant refuses an item that can’t hold Punch and any level above II.
