Weaponsmith Villager in Minecraft: Every Trade
A weaponsmith uses a grindstone as its job block. It buys coal, iron ingots, flint and diamonds, and sells an iron axe, an enchanted iron sword, a bell, an enchanted diamond axe and, at master level, an enchanted diamond sword.
What does a weaponsmith trade?
| Level | You give | You get |

How do you get a weaponsmith?
Place a grindstone near an unemployed villager (not a nitwit) and it takes the job. If you have not traded with it yet, breaking the block resets its trades. See villager professions.
What is a weaponsmith best for?
Weaponsmiths are a quick way to get enchanted swords and axes early, and they turn spare flint and iron into emeralds. See sword enchantments.
Any tips for weaponsmith trades?
Reroll a new weaponsmith by breaking its grindstone if you want a different first sword. Cheaper prices: curing zombie villagers. See also grindstones.
