Recycle Blast

Recycle Blast is a Minecraft datapack that introduces special recipes for recycling metal items. You can now dispose of old metal armor, horse armor, tools, and rails in the blast furnace, recovering some of the materials.

The material yield balance is designed to prevent any potential exploitation of game mechanics. When melting down most items, you'll receive significantly fewer resources than were originally invested in creating them. The main purpose of this addition is to provide a convenient way to get rid of unwanted items with minor compensation, rather than creating a new earning system.

This is an excellent solution for organizing your inventory and gaining additional benefit from items that would normally just be discarded.
