This article is about the block currently named "wood". For the block formerly known as "wood", see Log.

Wood is a block that has the log's "bark" texture on all six sides. Wood comes in 6 types: oak, spruce, birch, jungle, acacia, and dark oak.

Stripped wood is a variant obtained when any axe is used on wood.

Natural generation

Stripped oak wood generates as lamp posts in plains villages.

Acacia wood and stripped acacia wood generate in savanna villages.

Stripped spruce wood generates in snowy tundra villages.

Stripped wood

Using an axe on wood turns it into stripped wood.

Obtaining

Wood can be broken by hand, but using an axe speeds up the process.
