2. Use the Anvil
To use the anvil, you need to stand in front of it.
The game control to use the anvil depends on the version of Minecraft:
- For Java Edition (PC/Mac), right click on the anvil.

3. Enchant the Flint and Steel
To enchant the flint and steel, place the flint and steel in the first slot and an enchanted book in the second slot. In this tutorial, we will use a Mending book.
In the third slot, you will see the enchanted flint and steel. It will cost 2 experience levels to enchant the flint and steel with the Mending enchantment.
4. Move the Enchanted Flint and Steel to Inventory
Now, move the enchanted flint and steel from the third slot to your inventory hotbar.
TIP:Â If you hover over the enchanted flint and steel, you will see the name and level of the enchantment. In this example, it shows Mending which is the same as Mending I.
