A netherite pickaxe is a late-game variant of pickaxe obtained by upgrading a diamond pickaxe using a netherite ingot and netherite upgrade at a smithing table. It is the highest tier of pickaxe, having higher mining efficiency, durability, attack damage, and enchantability than a diamond pickaxe. It has a mining level of 4, which is functionally identical to a mining level of 3, allowing it to mine obsidian and ancient debris.

Obtaining

Upgrading

Like other diamond tools, a diamond pickaxe can be upgraded to a netherite pickaxe, increasing its durability and mining efficiency, as well as granting resistance to fire and lava when dropped as an item. The upgraded pickaxe will keep its enchantments, name and other item data.

Usage

Main article: Pickaxe § Usage

Mining

A netherite pickaxe is used to break stone and metal-based materials faster. Breaking a block with a netherite pickaxe consumes one use (one durability point). No durability is consumed for blocks that have a hardness value of 0, such as torches and flowers.

Mining level

Netherite pickaxes have a mining level of 4. A mining level of 4 is functionally identical to a mining level of 3, so there are no blocks that a netherite pickaxe can mine that a diamond pickaxe can’t.

Weapon

Java Edition

All pickaxes have an attack speed modifier of -2.8, meaning they take about 0.85 seconds to recover. Netherite pickaxes do 6HP❤️❤️❤️ damage per attack, or 7.2 damage per second.

Bedrock Edition

All pickaxes attack instantly, with netherite pickaxes doing 7HP❤️❤️❤️💔 damage per attack.

A netherite pickaxe can be repaired in an anvil by adding netherite ingots, with each ingot restoring 25% of the pickaxe's maximum durability, rounded down. Two netherite pickaxes can also be combined in an anvil. Both methods preserve the pickaxe's enchantments.

Enchantments

A netherite pickaxe can receive the following enchantments:

Name Description Max Level Method Weight
Efficiency Increases the mining speed. V Enchanting Table
Anvil 		10
Fortune[note 2] Increases the amount of drops when mining. III Enchanting Table
