It is common for a novice-level weaponsmith to buy 15 coals for one emerald. This is a good trade that allows players to amass a large number of emeralds quickly.

The trade will be disabled after 15 barters. However, it will be reactivated once the weaponsmith works on their job block again.


#4 - Iron for Emerald

After the player levels up the villager to the apprentice level, the villager usually offers to buy four iron ingots in exchange for an emerald.

This trade is one of the best ways to acquire emeralds quickly, as players usually have a large amount of iron on hand. This trade provides the weaponsmith with 10 XP per trade and disables after 12 trades.

Another excellent trade for the weaponsmith is for an enchanted iron sword.

Novice-level weaponsmiths will sometimes offer an enchanted iron sword for seven to 21 emeralds. This trade is great for players who need a potent weapon without going through the long process of enchantment.

These enchantments will be random (non-treasure) enchantments from levels 5-19.


#2 - Diamond Axe Enchantment

Expert-level weaponsmiths will offer an enchanted diamond axe for 17-31 emeralds. Many Minecraft players may think that is a lot of emeralds. However, with the coal and iron ore trades shown above, this axe can be traded quickly.

This trade becomes disabled after three barters and provides 15 XP to the weaponsmith.


#1 - Enchanted Diamond Sword

The best trade weaponsmiths offer is an enchanted diamond sword.

A master-level weaponsmith will offer an enchanted diamond sword for 13-27 emeralds. Again, this can be acquired relatively quickly if the player takes advantage of the cheaper trades.

Like the axe, this trade becomes disabled after three trades. However, the sword provides 30 XP to the villager.
