The smithing table interface.

Smithing is a Minecraft:gameplay mechanic that allows players to upgrade Minecraft:tools and Minecraft:armor both in material and in appearance through the use of a Minecraft:smithing table.

Equipment

A smithing table and three ingredients are required for each smithing action the player wishes to perform. Each time working on a smithing table, the player must provide a Minecraft:smithing template, Minecraft:armor/Minecraft:tool, and an augmenting material.

Upgrading

Upgrading is a process for turning Minecraft:diamond gear into Minecraft:netherite gear. This is the only way that netherite gear can be obtained.

While upgrading, the newly crafted netherite gear retains the Minecraft:enchantments, name, Minecraft:prior work penalty, and number of Minecraft:durability points lost (instead of the remaining durability) from the diamond gear. Upgrading gear does not remove incompatible enchantments, such as multiple different Minecraft:Protection enchantments.

Using a smithing table to upgrade diamond gear to netherite gear costs no Minecraft:experience and does not increase the prior work penalty.

When upgraded to netherite, all items are granted resistance to Minecraft:fire and Minecraft:lava when dropped in the world, and their Minecraft:durability and Minecraft:enchantability are increased. Swords and tools (except for hoes Template:In) deal a higher Minecraft:attack damage and the Minecraft:mining speed of tools is improved as well. Each piece of netherite armor gives 10% of knockback reduction, protecting 40% with a full set. Minecraft:Armor toughness is also increased.

Trimming

Trimming allows players to customize an Minecraft:armor piece's appearance by applying a material using one of the following smithing templates. During trimming, the decorative pattern applied to the armor corresponds to the trim used, with the color determined by the used material. The template is consumed in the process.

All trims are purely decorative, and don't impact gameplay in any way. Minecraft:Piglins do not pick up any gold-trimmed armor pieces and remain hostile towards players wearing gold-trimmed armor, unless the base armor is also golden. Non-netherite armor pieces trimmed with netherite still burn if Template:Control in Minecraft:fire or Minecraft:lava.

Most armor trims cover a small portion of the armor piece's surface with the trim material, except for the silence armor trim, which allows the trim material to cover a majority of the armor piece's surface.

Armor with a trim can be trimmed again by applying another template to it; the old trim pattern is overwritten in the process.<ref>Template:Bug</ref> Therefore, one piece of armor cannot possess multiple trims at the same time.
