What Is Birch Slab in Minecraft?

A Birch Slab is a short half-height block made from Birch Planks. It has the same pale colour as birch wood and is great for decorative detail work.

How Does Birch Slab Work?

Place it on the bottom half of a space for a step, or the top half for a raised ledge.
Stack two slabs in the same block space and they form a full Birch Planks block.
An axe breaks it fastest.
It catches fire easily, so keep it away from lava and flames.
