A '''diamond sword''' is a variant of [[Minecraft:sword]] that is crafted from [[Minecraft:diamond]]s. It is the second-highest tier of sword, dealing more damage than an iron sword and having higher durability. It can be upgraded into a netherite sword using a netherite ingot and netherite upgrade at a smithing table.

A sword can also be used to destroy certain blocks 50% quicker, sometimes much quicker than with fists.

If a sword is enchanted with [[Minecraft:Silk Touch]], either using Creative or [[Minecraft:commands]], cobwebs the sword destroys drop the cobwebs themselves instead of the usual string. This is due to the sword being classified as the proper tool for cobwebs.

A diamond sword can be repaired in an [[Minecraft:anvil]] by adding [[Minecraft:diamond]]s, with each repair diamond restoring 25% the sword's maximum durability, rounded down. Two diamond swords can also be combined in an anvil. Both methods preserve the diamond sword's enchantments.

Template:For Template:Infobox item A diamond sword is a variant of Minecraft:sword that is crafted from Minecraft:diamonds. It is the second-highest Minecraft:tier of sword, dealing more damage than an Minecraft:iron sword and having higher durability. It can be upgraded into a Minecraft:netherite sword using a Minecraft:netherite ingot and Minecraft:netherite upgrade at a Minecraft:smithing table.

Generated loot

Template:LootChestItem

Usage

Breaking

Template:Main A sword can also be used to destroy certain blocks 50% quicker, sometimes much quicker than with fists. Using a sword to destroy any block that doesn't break instantly by hand decreases its durability by 2; this includes bamboo, despite that the sword is the fastest tool for breaking it.<ref>Template:Bug</ref>

If a sword is enchanted with Minecraft:Silk Touch, either using Minecraft:Creative or Minecraft:commands, cobwebs the sword destroys drop the cobwebs themselves instead of the usual string. This is due to the sword being classified as the proper tool for cobwebs.

Creative mode

In Creative mode, swords are unable to break blocks. However, they can still break placed entities such as Minecraft:minecarts, Minecraft:paintings, Minecraft:item frames,Template:Only and Minecraft:armor stands.<ref>Template:Bug</ref><ref>Template:Bug</ref>

Attacking

Template:Main

A diamond sword is used to deal Minecraft:damage to mobs and entities by Template:Control them. The diamond sword has Template:Hp base damage Template:In and Template:Hp base damage Template:In, and can be enchanted to deal more damage. The following tables show how the Minecraft:Sharpness enchantment affects the damage dealt by the sword.
