About

The Golden Axe is a tool for harvesting wood and wood-based blocks. It has the fastest mining speed of any axe material in Minecraft, but compensates with the lowest durability, it breaks after minimal use.

Golden tools are impractical for survival play due to their durability penalty, but useful for creative builds or testing. Spawn one with /give @p minecraft:golden_axe 1. The item does not stack, so each axe takes a separate inventory slot.
