Last updated
Ever wondered how to start your adventure by making fire in Minecraft? Well, you’re likely looking for flint and steel – a handy tool for lighting things up. Let’s dive into how you can get your hands on this essential item.
So, you want to know how to get flint and steel in Minecraft? Whether it’s to light your cozy campfire or activate a nether portal, this guide has you covered.
Getting Your Flint and Steel Quick
Getting flint and steel in Minecraft is quite simple. First, you need to gather two things: flint and an iron ingot. Flint can typically be found when mining gravel blocks. There’s a chance a gravel block will drop flint instead of itself when broken. Keep mining gravel until you snag some flint!
Next, you’ll need an iron ingot. Iron ingots come from smelting iron ore blocks that you mine deep underground. Once you’ve got your iron ore, use a furnace to turn it into an iron ingot. Now, just open your crafting table, place the flint and iron ingot in, and voila! You’ve got yourself flint and steel.
