A poisonous potato hammer is a joke weapon, only present in 24w14potato.
It is visually similar to Potatiesh, Greatstaff of the Peasant, being a compressed Poisonous Potato rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise atop a blaze rod.

Usage
Poisonous potato hammer has an attack damage of 11, one more than an unenchanted netherite axe, and an attack speed of 6, allowing the player to hit nearly four times faster than a sword. This allows it to strike faster than the immunity period of a single target, during which the target can't receive consecutive damage. It comes enchanted with Knockback X and, unlike other weapons, doesn't lose durability when used. The Knockback enchantment can be removed via a grindstone, but no other enchantment can be applied to the hammer in Survival mode, either through an enchanting table or an anvil. It does not do sweep attacks.
When used to damage an entity, it has a 30% chance of throwing an extended lingering potion of Poison at the entity. The potion is thrown with speed relative to knockback taken by the attacked entity; if it's immune to knockback (like iron golems), potion is spawned with no horizontal speed, and falls onto the player's feet.
Creative mode
Players in Creative mode holding the poisonous potato hammer are unable to break blocks, just like with a sword.
