Minecraft is a huge game, which means that there are many enchantments that Minecraft players can choose from to place on their items. Enchantments are something that all Minecraft players would benefit from having in challenging situations.
Players can place enchantments on items using enchanting tables or anvils. Four blocks of obsidian, two diamonds and one book is required to craft an enchanting table in Minecraft. Three iron blocks & four iron ingots are the ingredients to craft an anvil.
One of the most slept-on enchantments in Minecraft is the silk touch. Some players say that Silk Touch isn’t very useful, however it can be very beneficial to players if they use it in the best ways. The Silk Touch enchantment can be placed on axes, shovels, and pickaxes in Minecraft.

enchantment can be very useful if players need to mine a fragile block or when they need a block as itself. For example, once glass is placed, players will not be able to pick it up unless they are using a tool enchanted with Silk Touch, otherwise the glass will shatter.
