[QUESTION] How do you repair a Bow with an Anvil?

[Pigperson]

Firstly I love the anvil, I just merged amazing enchantments on creative to test them out

I have an amazing bow and I tried to repair it with both string and sticks and neither worked. I wore down the bow so it isn't of full health and it still didn't work.

Help?

I don't think you can, can you??

Have you ever tried to repair a bow on an anvil in real life? It doesn't work.

Can you repair my carrot on a stick whilst you're at it pls x

Na as above said, you can't repair bows on an anvil

Omg that really sucks, my bow is my favourite item I read on some sites that you could repair it with string so it got my hopes up. I guess I'll have to wing it with an amazing sword.

combine it with another enchanted bow and it gets repaired?

Would be a bargain if you could fix them with string

I hate to resurrect an old thread, but it's the top Google result when searching for repairing bows with an anvil.

To repair your enchanted bow, combine it with an unenchanted one in an anvil to get the cheapest repair cost.
