Minecraft 1.18: The Iron Update!

On October 12, 2022, Mojang released the Iron Update. As you would expect, this improves iron and other smelting related items.
== Features: ==
The Iron Update comes with many new features. These are divided into two parts.
=== Blocks: ===
*Bloomery. 
**Bloomery is a new furnace - type block which is used for forging Iron into Steel Ingot, a new item. The Bloomery features an U.I. which allots for a fuel space (charcoal only), item to be smelted, and lava to heat the forge. Lava does not count as fuel, it only heats the forge. The Bloomery is ready to use when lava is put in it 5 minutes prior to using it to allow for it to heat. (Note: lava bucket can later be reclaimed). A red glowing icon shows when it is ready to use. After this, deposit iron, charcoal, and then wait to get Steel.
* The Refinery:
**The Refinery is used to refine Steel into Stainless Steel. This process is synthesized by using a new, rare ore called Chromium. The Refinery has an U.I. which contains spaces for Chromium, fuel (Blaze Rod only), and the Steel Ingot to be refined. Unlike the Bloomery, the Refinery does not need lava buckets to heat it up. But there is an additional price - you will need to use EXP points to refine, like the Anvil.

=== Items: ===
* Steel Ingot
** Steel Ingots are used to make Steel Armor, and a few other items like Stainless Steel, Durable Knife, and Steel Block. To see the formation of Steel, go to Bloomery in the blocks sections of Features.
* Stainless Steel Ingot
** Stainless Steel is the product of refining steel using a Refinery and Chromium. It is used to make Stainless Knife, Stainless Steel Countertop, and Stainless Steel Block. To see how it is made, go to the Refinery section.
* Steel Armor
** Steel Armor is a new type of armor. Unlike previous armors, this does not trump the highest armor currently available, (Netherite), but rather it has much more durability than even Diamond Armor. Specifically, its durability is in between Diamond and Netherite. However, it is only as as good as Iron Armor.
* Durable Knife
**Durable Knife is a new weapon which can be thrown and used as a melee weapon. It is crafted with 1 Steel on top of 1 Stick.
