Minecraft:Wooden Axe

Template:For Template:Infobox item A wooden axe is an early-game variant of Minecraft:axe that is crafted from Minecraft:planks. It can be used to cut down trees faster, to strip Minecraft:logs and Minecraft:scrape copper-based blocks, and as a melee weapon that disables Minecraft:shields. It is the seventh-highest Minecraft:tier of axe, having the lowest Minecraft:mining efficiency, the lowest attack damage alongside Minecraft:golden axes, and having the lowest attack speed alongside stone and Minecraft:copper axes. It can be used as Minecraft:fuel in a Minecraft:furnace, Minecraft:smoker, or Minecraft:blast furnace.

Template:JE

A wooden axe always disables a shield, although there should be a chance of it happening.<ref>Template:Bug</ref> Damage done by a wooden axe is equivalent to that of a Minecraft:diamond sword, but it has a longer cooldown.

Template:BE

Wooden axes attack instantly with no cooldown and do Template:Hp less damage than a Minecraft:wooden sword.

Repairing

Unit repair

A wooden axe can be repaired in an Minecraft:anvil by adding Minecraft:wooden planks, with each plank restoring 25% of the axe's maximum durability, rounded down. Two wooden axes can also be combined in an anvil. Both methods preserve the axe's Minecraft:enchantments.
