Ever wondered how to mend your favorite tools or armor in Minecraft? Let’s dive into an easy way to fix things up!

Fixing items in Minecraft isn’t as complicated as you might think. It’s actually a pretty cool part of the game that lets you get more life out of your gear. So, how do you do it?

The Quick Answer: Use an Anvil or a Grindstone

To repair an item in Minecraft, you’ll need either an anvil or a grindstone. Both tools have their own unique way of fixing your items, and choosing between them depends on what you need.

Anvils let you combine two of the same items to make one stronger item. They also let you keep any enchantments the item has. But be careful! Using an anvil costs experience points. Grindstones, on the other hand, remove all enchantments from an item but don’t cost any experience points to use. They’re great if you just want to fix your item without keeping the enchantments.
