How to Make Wooden Sword in Minecraft

→

Top row: Oak Planks. Middle row: Oak Planks. Bottom row: Stick.

What you need

• Oak Planks×2
• Stick×1

Worth knowing

• Any plank type works and they can even be mixed - oak, spruce, birch, jungle, acacia, dark oak, mangrove, cherry, pale oak, poplar, bamboo, crimson or warped.
• Deals 4 attack damage with 59 durability; it ties the golden sword for the lowest damage of any tier and only beats it on durability.
• Three rows tall, so it needs a crafting table - it will not fit the 2x2 inventory grid.
• The shape matters but its position does not — this works in any corner of the grid, as long as the arrangement is the same.

Where to get the ingredients

2 of the ingredients are crafted rather than found. Here is where each comes from.
