Diamond Sword item in Minecraft

Present since 1.0 or earlier Stack size: 1 In 4 tutorials ↓

The Diamond Sword is a sword, the standard melee weapon: quicker than an axe, with a sweeping attack that hits several mobs at once. Made from diamonds, it deals 7 damage and lasts 1561 hits; a netherite ingot on a smithing table takes it one step further. It works like every other sword; the Iron Sword page explains sweeping attacks and enchantments.

It is made with the Crafting Table from Stick and 2 × Diamond.
