Steps to Crafting a Sword in Minecraft

To make a sword in Minecraft, you need some basic materials: a crafting table and either wooden planks, cobblestone, iron ingots, gold ingots, or diamonds. These materials determine the type of sword you can create.

First things first, open your crafting table to access the 3×3 crafting grid. To craft a basic wooden sword, place a stick in the bottom row middle square and two wooden planks above it in the middle column. Voila! You now have a wooden sword. For stronger swords, simply replace the wooden planks with cobblestone, iron, gold, or diamonds accordingly.
