Final Tool Upgrade Guide
Village in the Shade Meteorite Tools Guide
Meteorite is the final metal upgrade tier for the Watering Can, Hoe, Axe, Pickaxe and Plow. Unlock the Meteorite Mold through Sazanka's progression, buy it for ¥20,000, process Meteorite into Meteorite Ingots in the Furnace, then use the Anvil to upgrade an eligible tool.
English item and system names currently follow the site's Japanese-release terminology and may be updated after the official English localization can be verified on October 27, 2026.

Featured answer

Finish the relevant Sazanka Helping Ticket progression, buy 隕鉄の金型 for ¥20,000, gather Meteorite, process Meteorite ×5 with one accepted fuel, wait 12 hours for 隕鉄の延べ棒, and take the required upgrade materials to the Anvil.
Unlock Chain
How to unlock Meteorite tools
Follow the sequence in order; the unresolved timing is called out instead of being treated as an instant shop refresh.
01
Complete Sazanka progression
02
Check 田上雑貨店
03
Buy the Mold
04
Process and upgrade
Sazanka's current project record awards a Brewing Barrel and records Anvil availability in the General Store the following day. Direct Japanese Mold evidence ties sale to completion of her Helping Ticket. These facts are compatible as a progression chain, but they do not prove that delivering Copper Ore ×5 immediately reveals the Mold.

Progression stock
The page uses the user-facing source term 隕鉄の金型 while reusing the existing canonical stock ID meteor-iron-mold. The store record currently carries the provisional label Meteor Iron Mold; no second shop or item record is introduced.
Roadblock
Why the Mold may not be visible yet
The Sazanka data has two connected but differently timed records.
- Ticket: Bring Copper Ore requires Copper Ore ×5; its reward includes Brewing Barrel.
- Shop path: the task records Anvil in the General Store the following day.
- Mold evidence: direct Japanese guide wording says the Mold is sold after completing Sazanka's Helping Ticket.
- Still unresolved: whether a next-day refresh, follow-up interaction or another progression flag is required.

How to make Meteorite Ingots
Keep the fuel alternatives separate: you need one, not both.
Input material

The canonical raw resource ID is meteoric-iron; it is a Quarry ore used for the final metal chain.

- First around 91F; target 111F–120F
Japanese mining sources report late-floor access and a recommended 111F–120F range. Exact node behavior and vein RNG are intentionally owned by the Mining guide rather than guessed here.

Use 金床 / Anvil for the final upgrade
The building record remains the authority for construction details.
Bring the Mold, Meteorite Ingots and the eligible tool to the Anvil after the relevant progression is open. The exact per-tool ingredient quantity, money cost, previous-tier prerequisite and upgrade time are not independently confirmed in the current source set.

Five Eligible Tools
Which tools can become Meteorite?
The current canonical tool model has exactly five metal-upgrade families. Sickle, Bow and Flashlight stay outside this chain.
Watering Can
隕鉄のジョウロ
5 tiles forward at the Meteor Iron tier in the canonical reach profile.
- Canonical ID
- watering-can
- Profile
- 5 tiles forward
- Best when
- Large normal-field workload
Hoe
隕鉄のクワ
5×5 tilled area at the Meteor Iron tier in the canonical area profile.
- Canonical ID
- hoe
- Profile
- 5×5
- Best when
- Large field preparation
Axe
隕鉄のオノ
Meteor Iron is the final metal tier; exact hit counts and stamina changes are not independently confirmed.
- Canonical ID
- axe
- Profile
- Qualitative
- Best when
- Heavy tree or wood demand
Pickaxe
隕鉄のツルハシ
Gold Ore and rare ore are documented as breakable in 2 hits; this does not mean every rock takes 2 hits.
- Canonical ID
- pickaxe
- Profile
- Qualitative
- Best when
- Mining or upgrade-material bottleneck
Plow
隕鉄のスキ
5×5 paddy area at the Meteor Iron tier in the canonical area profile.
- Canonical ID
- plow
- Profile
- 5×5
- Best when
- Large rice-field workload
Recipe caution: per-tool ingot costs, other materials, money, upgrade time and exact previous-tier requirements remain unknown. No unknown is rendered as zero, and no shared five-tool cost is inferred.
Upgrade Priority
Which Meteorite tool should you upgrade first?
Pick the tool that removes your current bottleneck, not a universal S-tier ranking.
MINING
Pickaxe first
FIELDS
Watering Can or Hoe
PADDY
Plow first
WOOD
Axe first
Pickaxe Performance
Meteorite Pickaxe: why it matters
Keep the documented two-hit claim narrow.
The current Japanese money-making guide specifically reports that Gold Ore and rare ore can be broken in 2 Pickaxe hits at the Meteorite tier. That makes the Pickaxe a strong first candidate for players who are mining for more ore and more ingots.
It does not establish that every rock, hard stone, boss rock or Quarry target takes two hits. Target-specific hit counts remain unresolved.

Common roadblocks
- Mold missing: verify Sazanka's Helping Ticket progression, the correct 田上雑貨店, your money and any progression refresh; the exact timing is unresolved.
- No Ingot: use Meteorite ×5 plus one fuel choice, not Coal and Charcoal together, and allow 12 hours.
- Wrong upgrade: the current chain includes five tools only. Do not look for Meteorite Sickle, Bow or Flashlight recipes.
- Pickaxe expectation: the 2-hit source claim covers Gold Ore and rare ore, not every rock.
- Unknown cost: per-tool recipes are still open; do not assume all five tools consume the same quantity.

Meteorite Tools questions
Answers stay within the verified chain and mark the gaps that still need direct recipe testing.
How do I unlock Meteorite tools?
Complete the relevant Sazanka Helping Ticket progression, buy the Meteorite Mold from 田上雑貨店 / Sazanka General Store for ¥20,000, make Meteorite Ingots in the Furnace, then use the Anvil for one of the five eligible tools.
Where do I get the Meteorite Mold?
The current direct guide evidence places 隕鉄の金型 / Meteorite Mold in Sazanka's General Store after the relevant Sazanka Helping Ticket progression. The canonical stock record is reused here.
How much does the Meteorite Mold cost?
¥20,000.
Does Copper Ore ×5 immediately unlock the Meteorite Mold?
Not confirmed. The canonical Sazanka task requires Copper Ore ×5 and records a Brewing Barrel reward plus an Anvil-in-the-General-Store path on the following day. Direct Mold evidence says the Mold follows completion of Sazanka's Helping Ticket, but the exact refresh or follow-up timing is unresolved.
How do I make a Meteorite Ingot?
Put Meteorite ×5 and either Coal ×1 or Charcoal ×1 into the Furnace. The documented processing time is 12 hours, producing 隕鉄の延べ棒 / Meteorite Ingot.
Which tools have Meteorite versions?
Exactly five current metal-upgrade chains: Watering Can, Hoe, Axe, Pickaxe and Plow.
Is there a Meteorite Sickle, Bow or Flashlight?
Not in the current canonical metal-upgrade system. Sickle progression is handled separately through Shrine Skills, while Bow and Flashlight have no Meteorite chain here.
Do I need Gold tools first?
The full Meteorite per-tool prerequisite is not independently confirmed in the current source set. Do not assume a Gold prerequisite or a direct-upgrade route until the recipe is verified.
Is the Meteorite Mold reusable?
Unresolved. The same named mold is listed for all five eligible tools, but current evidence does not establish whether it is consumed, reusable or a permanent recipe unlock.
How many Meteorite Ingots does each tool cost?
Per-tool Meteorite Ingot quantities, money costs, other materials and upgrade time are not independently confirmed, so this page does not invent a shared cost or total.
Where do I get Meteorite?
The current resource record places Meteorite / 隕鉄 in the Quarry. Japanese mining guides put first appearance around 91F and recommend the 111F–120F late-floor range; exact vein RNG remains a Mining-guide question.
Why is the Meteorite Pickaxe useful?
The sourced improvement is specific: Gold Ore and rare ore can be broken in 2 hits. That wording should not be expanded to every rock, boss rock or every Quarry target.
Does Meteorite equipment reduce stamina?
No such tier effect is independently confirmed here. Keep stamina reductions from Shrine Skills separate from metal-tool progression.
Which Meteorite tool should I upgrade first?
Choose by bottleneck. Pickaxe is the strongest first candidate when mining or tool-material progression is slowing you down; Watering Can or Hoe suit broad fields, Plow suits paddy work, and Axe suits heavy wood demand.
