Netherite Sword item in Minecraft

Added in 1.16 Stack size: 1 In 2 tutorials ↓

The Netherite Sword is a sword, the standard melee weapon: quicker than an axe, with a sweeping attack that hits several mobs at once. Upgraded from a diamond sword with a netherite ingot, it is the strongest sword: 8 damage, 2031 hits, and it does not burn. It works like every other sword; the Iron Sword page explains sweeping attacks and enchantments.

It is made with the Smithing Table from Netherite Upgrade, Diamond Sword and Netherite Ingot.
