What is the Minecraft ID for Diamond Sword?
The namespaced ID is minecraft:diamond_sword, used in the /give command: /give @p minecraft:diamond_sword. In legacy versions before 1.13, Diamond Sword used the numeric ID 276. Numeric item IDs were removed in the 1.13 "Flattening" and no longer work in modern commands.
Why does Diamond Sword have a stack size of 1?
Items with stack size 1 are typically tools, weapons, armor, buckets, or unique items. They can't be combined into stacks because the game tracks their durability or contents individually.
