A poisonous potato cutter is a joke block only present in 24w14potato. It functions like a stonecutter, except it works only on poisonous potatoes, cutting them into poisonous potato slices or poisonous potato sticks.

Obtaining

Breaking

A poisonous potato cutter can be mined using any pickaxe. If mined without a pickaxe, it drops nothing.

Sounds

Generic

This section uses a sound table which may not accurately represent the sounds associated with this feature.
 
Because of MC-177082, subtitles for falling on blocks may not have existed at this point in development, so a dedicated sound table accounting for this may be required.
