How to get golden axe?
In order to get the golden axe recipe, you’ll have to break 100 axes through usage. You’ll get there eventually, but if you’re in a hurry, you’ll need a whole bunch of twigs and stones. Once you have them, craft as much flimsy axes as you can and start chopping down trees. You’ve already broken plenty, so you won’t need the entire 100 axes now.
How to get golden shovel?
Unlocking Golden Shovel is not an easy job to do. You’ll need to help Gulliver 30 times, but you’ll also have to time travel. Since Gulliver appears randomly, if you don’t use time travel you’ll wait for gold shovel about one year.
How to get gold fishing rod?
To obtain the golden fishing rod, you’ll have to catch every single species of fish available in the game. Once you’ve caught and catalogued them all, you’ll get the recipe for the gold rod.
How to obtain gold net?
The golden net recipe is obtained in a way similar to the one above. Just substitute fish for bugs. In other words, you’ll need to use the net to catch every kind of insect present on the island.
How to get golden watering can?
The can is a bit curious. In order to get it, you’ll need a five star rating for your town. This means you’ll have to maintain a perfect town for 15 days. After you’ve done so, talk to Isabelle and you’ll get the DIY recipe required for this lavish watering can.
Golden slingshot – how to get?
We’re not sure about this one, but we’ve heard you need to pop 100 balloons to get it. Since the slingshot is the least useful of all the tools, it may take a while before anyone makes the effort to find out for sure.
Can golden tools break?
Yes. Golden tools can break just like any others. They might have higher durability, but they’re going to break sooner or later. Since gold is a pretty rare resource, you might want to rethink upgrading your tools to gold quality – or at least use the golden version just for showing off.
