Creating an Anvil

Anvils are essential for item repair. Crafting one demands 4 iron ingots and 3 iron blocks (requiring 31 ingots total!). Smelt iron ore in a furnace or blast furnace beforehand. Use the crafting table recipe below:

Anvil Functionality

The anvil's crafting menu has three slots; use two items at a time. Repairing uses two identical, low-durability tools to create a new one. Alternatively, combine a damaged tool with crafting materials.

Repairing consumes experience points; higher durability restoration costs more XP. Some items, including enchanted ones, may have unique repair requirements.

Repairing Enchanted Items

Repairing enchanted items is similar to standard repair but requires more experience points and higher-quality enchanted items or enchanted books. Combining two enchanted items can create a higher-level, fully repaired item. The combined properties (including durability) of both items are added. Success isn't guaranteed and the cost varies depending on item placement – experiment!

You can also use enchanted books instead of a second tool for repair and upgrading.

Anvil Durability and Limitations

Even anvils break with repeated use, indicated by cracks. Remember to craft replacements and keep a supply of iron. Anvils cannot repair scrolls, books, bows, chainmail, and other items.

Repairing Items Without an Anvil

Minecraft's versatility extends to item repair. A crafting table, or even a grindstone, can be used to combine identical items, increasing durability. This is particularly useful for travel when carrying an anvil is impractical.

Experiment with different materials and methods to find the most efficient repair strategies. Minecraft offers diverse repair options beyond standard recipes.
