A poisonous potato cutter is a joke block added in 24w14potato. It functions like a stonecutter, except it works only on poisonous potatoes, cutting them into poisonous potato slices or poisonous potato sticks.

Obtaining

Breaking

A poisonous potato cutter can be mined using any pickaxe. If mined without a pickaxe, it drops nothing.

Note: No version exists with both copper tools and this block, but the breaking time can be calculated from the block's hardness.
