How to Make Polished Deepslate Slab in Minecraft

Guide Java Bedrock

Quick answer: Put 3 polished deepslate blocks in a crafting table (three blocks in one horizontal row) to make six slabs. A stonecutter also works: two slabs per polished deepslate, cobbled deepslate or deepslate block, the same yield as crafting.
