But this doesn't means that i dont need ideas anymore

I was planning to make datapack that adds alot of pickaxes. Just for fun.

So i need some ideas

Any pickaxe out of any material



Examples:

"glass pickaxe with 10 durability but instamines everything"
"emerald pickaxe that can only be get from trading"



dumb ideas allowed too:

"air pickaxe that just a long stick"
"wool pickaxe that cant mine"

Thought of another possibility:

An obsidian pick that mines as a wooden pick (speed and drops) except that it can mine (& drop) obsidian (and only obsidian) significantly faster than a netherite pick.
[Intended as a bit of specialty kit for obsidian mining]

hey i checked i actually can do this

also i will upload demo version tomorrow and you can see your pickaxe in (amethyst one too)

also i made it uncraftable and only way to get it is to drop a lava pickaxe from other comment in a water

Flint pickaxe that has less durability stone but mines faster than stone
(as a sort of in-between)
Or a tiny pickaxe that can be crafted in a 2x2 crafting grid (maybe like a cobblestone, stick, and string)

👍, particularly on the last one… I'm envisioning somthing like a geologist's/rockhound's hammer that would be emergency equipment (just good enough to get one out of a jam, but nothing one would use by choice [very slow speed maybe?])

or perhaps that it doesn't drop items? (it mines at a low level) or that it has very low durability?

Two good nerfs, but if it doesn't drop items, how could it be made better than punching? [​Other than just faster, which wouldn't tend to mak it attractive to me…]
(I was thinking drops as cobble/stone pick {but w/o any ores} so one could get the blocks needed to bridge or pillar, but couldn't collect most resources)

EDIT: also unenchantable, just to cover the bases
and possibly loud to make it extra dangerous to use near warden areas

How about a wool pick that mines without creating "vibrations" i.e. without triggering skulk sensors/wardens

a slime pickaxe that mines the block behind the player (same Y-level as the block the pick appears to strike)
an amethyst pick that acts as though it had silk touch (fortune cannot be applied)

Boomaxe. Chance (or gurantee) for the block you're mining to explode in say a 4x4 radius. Use with caution, does not injure user.

Mobaxe. Mob based pick axes that allow you to mine mobs for increased drops compared to standard slaying.

Voidaxe. Mine air, water, and lava to create a black void space. Void block can be a physical block to stand on or a damaging surface.
