Tools are a sub-type of utilities, but are treated slightly differently in-game. All of them are craftable using the Production Menu.
If there is a utility that does not fit in a particular zone, it is most likely a tool. Tools, unlike plain utilities (with the exception of the Anvil), can be stored in a Tool Chest.
Stone Hammer[ | ]
The Stone Hammer is found in the production menu, and each one requires 2 stone and 1 wood to be made. They're crafted on a Wood detailer.
A stone hammer is used in the construction of the Anvil. They can also be equipped as a weapon. Because of this, they are stored in a Weapon Cabinet rather than a Tool Chest.
Tongs[ | ]
Tongs are found in the production menu too, and each one requires 2 iron and 1 wood to be made. They're crafted on a Mason's bench.
Tongs are used in the construction of the Anvil.
Torch[ | ]
Torches are found in the production menu, and each one requires 1 coal and 2 wood to be made. They're crafted on a Wood detailer alongside a Carpentry bench.
Torches are used in the construction of Mineshafts and Cooking Bowls.
Bone Carver[ | ]
Bone Carvers are also found in the production menu, and each one requires 1 bone and 1 wood to be made. They're crafted on a Wood detailer alongside a Carpentry bench.
A bone carver was used to create each piece of the Bone Set of armor. Since version 11, it is only kept in the game for save compatibility.
Snow Bucket[ | ]
Snow Buckets are crafted from a single snow pile, which is found when mining snow.
Snow buckets turn into water buckets eventually, which are used in cooking food.
Water Bucket[ | ]
If snow buckets are left out in the sun, after a short time, they will turn into Water Buckets. Water Buckets can also be obtained from Wells.
Water buckets are used in cooking, specifically for mushroom soup and mountain stew.
Empty Bottle[ | ]
Empty bottles are crafted through the Utilities menu, and require 1 mud or 1 sand to make. They are crafted on a smelter.
Its only current use is to make Poison Bottles.
