Bedrock Edition:Invalid Block State Stonecutter (Item)

Invalid Data Value Stonecutter Next To Regular Stonecutter.png

Invalid block state stonecutters are stonecutter items with a facing_direction block state other than 0 or 2 prior to Preview 1.20.40.20 or a cardinal_direction block state besides north in current versions. For most of its obtainable version range, stonecutters with a facing_direction of 4 (west) or 5 (east) can be differentiated from regular stonecutter items by their inventory appearance having a different facing direction than normal. Stonecutters with a facing_direction of 3 (south) are an unobservable discontinued feature. Starting in Preview 1.20.40.20, all stonecutter block states have an identical facing direction in item form, which also makes west and east-facing stonecutter items unobservable from that version onwards.

Obtaining

Obtaining an invalid block state stonecutter requires a stonecutter block facing south, west, or east. Whether this is done by crafting a stonecutter and placing it down or by finding one in a village does not matter. Move any stonecutters that you have in your inventory inside a chest, and then mine the placed stonecutter. It will have a different facing direction from the default of north.

From beta 1.10.0.3 to 1.10.1, the "Experimental Gameplay" toggle has to be enabled in order to obtain stonecutters and, by extension, invalid block states on their item form.

Trivia

• When invalid block state stonecutters are placed onto regular stonecutter stacks, all of the items turn into regular stonecutters. This also works the other way around.
