'''Flint''' is a mineral obtained from [[gravel]].

== Obtaining ==
=== Mining ===
When a block of [[gravel]] is mined, there is a 10% chance for a single piece of flint to drop instead of the [[gravel]] block. When mined with a [[Fortune]]-enchanted tool, this chance increases to 16% at Fortune I, 25% at Fortune II, and 100% at Fortune III. Gravel mined using a tool with [[Silk Touch]] or gravel that fell on a non-solid block never produces flint.

=== Trading ===
Novice-level [[Trading#Fletcher|fletcher]] [[villager]]s have a 50%{{only|bedrock}} or {{frac|2|3}}{{only|java}} chance to offer 10 pieces of flint for 10 blocks of gravel and an [[emerald]].

=== Chest loot ===

{{LootChestItem|flint}}

== Usage ==
=== Crafting ingredient ===

{{crafting usage}}

=== Trading ===
Apprentice-level fletcher villagers buy 26 flint for an emerald.

Apprentice-level leatherworker villagers have a {{frac|2|3}} chance to buy 26 flint for an emerald {{in|java}}, and always offer the trade {{in|bedrock}}.

Journeyman-level toolsmith villagers have a {{frac|2|5}} chance to buy 30 flint for one emerald in ''Java Edition'', and always offer the trade in Bedrock Edition.

Journeyman-level weaponsmith villagers buy 24 flint for an emerald.

A '''pickaxe''' is a [[tools|tool]] required to mine [[ore]]s, [[rock|rocks]], rock-based blocks and metal-based [[block]]s quickly and obtain them as items. A pickaxe mines faster and can obtain more block types as items depending on the material it is made from.

== Obtaining ==
=== Crafting ===
Pickaxes are crafted using 2 [[stick]]s and 3 identical units of tool material.

==== Unit repair ====
{{main|Anvil mechanics#Unit repair}}
Pickaxes can be repaired in an [[anvil]] by adding units of the [[tiers|tier's]] repair material, with each repair material restoring 25% of the pickaxe's maximum durability, rounded down.

=== Trading ===
{{IN|bedrock}}, novice-level toolsmith [[Villager|villagers]] have a 25% chance to sell stone pickaxes for one [[emerald]], Journeyman-level toolsmith villagers have a 25% chance to sell enchanted iron pickaxes for 3 emeralds, and master-level toolsmith villagers always sell enchanted diamond pickaxes for 13 emeralds.

{{IN|java}}, novice-level toolsmith villagers have a 40% chance to sell a stone pickaxe for one emerald, journeyman-level toolsmith villagers have a 40% chance to sell an enchanted iron pickaxe for 7–22 emeralds, and a master-level toolsmith always sells an enchanted diamond pickaxe for 18–35 emeralds.

The enchantments are the same as the ones obtained from an [[enchantment table]] at levels 5–19.

=== Villager gifts ===

{{IN|JE}}, toolsmith [[villager]]s throw stone pickaxes at players under the [[Hero of the Village]] effect.

=== Mob loot ===
{{IN|BE}}, [[pillager]]s and [[vindicator]]s have a chance of dropping a damaged iron pickaxe when killed during a [[raid]]. The pickaxe has a 50% chance of being enchanted with random enchantment(s).

== Usage ==
=== Mining ===
A pickaxe is used to break stone and metal-based materials faster. Breaking a block with a pickaxe consumes one use (one durability point). No durability is consumed for blocks that break instantly. Pickaxes have different amounts of uses based on the type:
* Wooden: 60
* Stone: 132
* Iron: 251
* Golden: 33
* Diamond: 1562
* Netherite: 2032

Different qualities of pickaxe are required to successfully harvest certain ores and blocks. For example, while [[stone]] can be mined with any pickaxe, [[gold ore]] must be mined with an [[iron]], [[diamond]], or [[netherite]] pickaxe, or else the player harvests no ore. Different pickaxes also mine many materials at different speeds:

==== Speed ====
The following table shows the time it takes to break each type of block.
* A <span style="background-color:#FFC7CE;color:#9C0006;">red</span> background indicates that the block cannot be harvested with that type of pickaxe.
* A <span style="background-color:#FFFFDD;color:#8A7600;">yellow</span> background indicates that the block cannot be harvested with that type of pickaxe, but still drops something.
* A <span style="background-color:#C6EFCE;color:#006100;">green</span> background indicates that the block can be harvested with that type of pickaxe.

== Issues ==
{{issue list}}

== Trivia ==
*The golden pickaxe is the only pickaxe that is unable to harvest the material it is made from.
*The pickaxe is the only block-breaking tool without a {{control|use}} (right-click) function.

=== Publicity ===
*Plastic diamond pickaxes are official ''[[Minecraft]]'' merchandise.<ref>https://shop.minecraft.net/products/minecraft-pickaxe?_pos=3&_psq=pickaxe&_ss=e&_v=1.0</ref>
*In the game [[wikipedia:Naughty Bear: Panic in Paradise|''Naughty Bear: Panic in Paradise'']], the player can buy a diamond pickaxe which, according to the game, is made by "Kick it up a Notch Pickaxes", referring to [[Notch]].
*In mobile game ''[https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=br.com.tapps.vloggergoviral Vlogger Go Viral]'' clicker game, after buying the figurine shelf, there is a model of a diamond pickaxe stuck to a [[grass block]].
*In the game [[wikipedia:The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim|''The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim'']], the player can find a pickaxe called the "Notched Pickaxe", evidently an [[easter egg]].
*In the game [[wikipedia:Offensive Combat|''Offensive Combat'']], a stone pickaxe can be used as a melee weapon with the name of "The Notch Carver".
*In the game [[wikipedia:The Binding of Isaac (video game)|''The Binding of Isaac'']], an obtainable item named "Notched Axe", also with a drawn 8-bit look, can be used to destroy rocks. The Notched Axe also makes a return in the game's remake, [[wikipedia:The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth|''The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth'']].
*In the game [[wikipedia:Borderlands 2|''Borderlands 2'']], the player can find a secret area hidden away by blocks resembling Minecraft [[dirt]], also once inside the player can fight Creeper and the Mother Creeper to get rare Minecraft-related skins.
*In the game [[wikipedia:Octodad: Dadliest Catch|''Octodad: Dadliest Catch'']], the supermarket level has a "Mintcraft" display, an obvious parody of Minecraft, even including toy pickaxes and a creeper head.
*In the game [[wikipedia:Transformice|''Transformice'']], a diamond pickaxe can be found in the shop.
