Guides › Items & tools
An axe chops logs, planks and other wooden blocks faster, and it doubles as a strong weapon. In a Bedrock add-on you choose its damage, mining speed, tier, durability and repair material.
Addon's Studio starts you with an axe texture and sensible numbers, so you only change what you want. Make a heavy battle axe, a lumberjack's tool, or a magic axe that runs commands when it hits.

Step by step
Add an Axe
Tap Add item in your project and choose Axe. Name it, for example Ruby Axe.
Set damage and speed
The editor starts at 9 attack damage for a hard-hitting axe. Set Mining speed for how fast it chops.
Choose tier, durability and repair
Pick a mining tier, how long it lasts and a repair material for the anvil.
Draw the axe
Paint the icon or import a picture. Turn on 3D model to build a chunkier 3D head in Blockbench.
Add actions
Use Hit a mob or Break a block with it to run commands or one of your functions.
Add a recipe and export
Turn on Crafting, fill the grid, then tap Export and test it with the /give command shown in the editor.
Tips
- For a battle axe, raise damage and lower mining speed. For a lumber tool, do the opposite.
- Match the repair material to your other tools so a whole set is fixed with the same item.
- A Break a block with it action can reward players while they chop, for example with xp 1 @s.
- Keep commands short, and add a cooldown if an action is strong.
Questions
Can my axe be a weapon and a tool?
Yes. Every axe has both attack damage and mining speed, so it works as both.
Can I give it a 3D model?
Yes. Turn on 3D model and Blockbench opens so you can shape it. The icon is still used in the inventory, and the 3D model shows when it's held.
Will it work on phones and tablets?
Yes. Add-ons from Addon's Studio work in Minecraft Bedrock Edition 1.26.50 or newer on Android, iPhone, iPad and Windows, and you can make them on those devices too.
