About

The Iron Axe is a mid-tier tool in Minecraft. It chops wood and wood-related blocks faster than hand-digging and deals more damage than a wooden or stone axe when used as a weapon. Iron Axes do not stack, you can carry only one per inventory slot.

To give a player an Iron Axe, use /give @p minecraft:iron_axe 1. The axe will appear in the player's inventory with full durability and can be repaired using iron ingots on an anvil or in a grindstone.
