'''Shears''' are tools used primarily to shear [[sheep]] to get [[wool]] and mine a few types of [[blocks]].

=== Trading ===

Novice-level Shepherd villagers have a 40% chance to sell shears for 2 emeralds in Java Edition, and the trade is always offered in Bedrock Edition.

=== Natural generation ===

{{LootChestItem|shears}}

== Usage ==

Despite using [[Iron Ingot|iron]] in its crafting recipe, it cannot be smelted into [[iron nugget]]s.<ref>{{bug|MC-111738}}</ref>

=== Shearing ===

Shears are the most efficient way to get [[wool]] from a [[sheep]], producing 1–3 [[wool]]. The same sheep can be sheared again after it eats from a [[grass block]] to regenerate its wool. In contrast, killing the [[sheep]] yields only 1 non-renewable [[Wool|wool block]].

Shearing a [[mooshroom]] drops 5 [[mushroom]]s of the same color and turns it into a normal [[cow]].

Shearing a [[pumpkin]] turns it into a [[carved pumpkin]] after dropping 4 [[pumpkin seeds]] {{in|java}} or 1-3 pumpkin seeds {{in|bedrock}}.

Shearing a [[snow golem]] removes its [[pumpkin]], dropping it.

Shearing either a [[beehive]] or [[bee nest]] at honey level 5 drops 3 [[honeycomb]]s. This does not break the hive or nest.

In [[Minecraft Earth]], shears can be used to get Buttercups from Mooblooms and Wool from Wooly Cows and variant Sheep.

=== Breaking Blocks ===
Shears can also be used to harvest blocks of [[wool]], [[cobweb]], [[leaves]], [[tall grass]], [[seagrass]], [[fern]]s (both normal and 2-high), [[dead bush]]es, [[nether sprouts]], [[vines]], [[weeping vines]], [[twisting vines]] and [[glow lichen]]{{upcoming|1.17}}. They can also be used to break [[tripwire]] connected to a [[tripwire hook]] without activating it.

When used to break weeping vines and twisting vines, the block always drops as an item, instead of a 33% chance by normal means.

The shears use 1 [[durability]] when it is used to break any block, even if it [[instant mining|breaks instantly]] by hand.

The following table shows information about blocks that can be broken with shears. Colors indicate what gets dropped when the block is broken:

* White: The original block.
* Blue: The Block's normal drop (i.e. string, sticks, seeds, sapling, apple).
* Red: Nothing.
