How to get Netherite in Minecraft

Players need to get ancient debris in the Nether first. You can break ancient debris using a Diamond pickaxe or a Netherite pickaxe. If you mine it without anything else, it will drop nothing.

Next, you need to smelt ancient debris in order to get Netherite scrap. You can craft 4 pieces of Netherite scraps and 4 gold ingots pieces into 1 Netherite ingot in the crafting table.

How to craft a Netherite Sword

Unlike other weapons, you cannot craft a Netherite Sword directly. The only way to get a Netherite Sword is by upgrading a Diamond Sword using a smithing table. Players can craft a smithing table from four planks of any type and two iron ingots.

Open the smithing table, place the Diamond Sword into the first slot and a Netherite ingot in the other slot. Pull the Netherite Sword from the third slot into your inventory.

A Netherite sword can deal 8 damage per hit (4 hearts) in Java Edition and 9 damage per hit (4.5 hearts) in Bedrock Edition. It has four hundred and seventy durability points and it can last even longer with good enchantment.
