How To Disenchant Items in Minecraft

It may be essential to dispel the enchantments from a piece of equipment at some point in time. For example, suppose you’re in a Nether stronghold and you come upon a box containing a Netherite Sword! That’s a fantastic find, but unfortunately it bears the mark of the Bane of Arthropods. That’s only effective against a few distinct hostile monsters that you won’t see very often, and it’s certainly not something you’d want to put a lot of effort into improving as you acquire more experience. Remove enchantments off things in the game, on the other hand, may be accomplished through a variety of means.

The grindstone is going to be your first choice, and it will probably be your go-to option in the majority of instances. By dragging and dropping the desired equipment onto the grindstone menu, you will be presented with a totally unenchanted version of that item for you to pick up and use. Disenchanting the item will also grant you a little amount of the experience gained from applying the enchantment back to your character. Unfortunately, this will not eliminate curses, so we will go to option number two.

In circumstances when you need to remove less-than-ideal enchantments from equipment gained via treasure boxes or villager trade, this is an excellent alternative because it leaves you with a clean slate that you may enchant however you see appropriate.

Making a crafting grid out of your equipment is the second method of removing enchantments off your equipment. This method is not well known, but it can be useful. Consider the following scenario: you received two enchanted bows as drops from your hostile mob farm. You are not need to have either in order to be enchanted, but you are gathering full-durability unenchanted bows in order to utilize them in the creation of dispensers. Using the two enchanted bows, you may combine them in your crafting grid to create a single unenchanted bow with a durability that is more than the combined durability of the two damaged bows (capping, of course at the max durability of the item). This approach, on the other hand, will not grant you any experience points and will not remove curses on your character.
