Stone Shovel item in Minecraft

Present since 1.0 or earlier Stack size: 1

The Stone Shovel is a shovel, the digging tool for soft ground: dirt, grass, sand, gravel, clay, snow and soul sand. It also flattens grass into paths and puts out campfires. A stone head on two sticks gives a shovel that survives 131 uses and digs noticeably faster than a wooden one. It works like every other shovel; the Iron Shovel page explains paths, snow and enchantments.

It is made with the Crafting Table from 2 × Stick and Cobblestone or Blackstone or Cobbled Deepslate.
