Mokuton doesn't have much durability IMO, it's basically wood. A simple katana could slice it or easily stab into it. It's just thick, so it's able to hold off most attacks and self-repair. Other than that, it doesn't have much durability feats. It's no different than regular wood, just able to take specific forms...

Which is why a weakened version of it from Danzo intercepted a Susano'o attack.

A simple katana could stab a weak form like Zetsu's, but even Madara's watered down form wouldn't break up when BM Naruto tried to bite through it.

To cut through the original Hashi or Shinju stuff, you need a razor sharp ninjutsu, avatar ability or strong weapon. (Suidanha, BM Bijudama/Susano'o sword, Adamantine Nyoi etc)

Good, my job is done here.

I mean, Sasuke was in the top tier even then and further enhanced by Juugo. So, duh, he could cut a branch. It's not like Sasuke's Susano'o at that point was some scrub. Great detective work?

The wide spread multiplication of the wood makes up for its lack of durability.

Example: You cut/burn 12 inches - 50 inches replaces that 12 in a matter of seconds.

I'll ad to this before others try to counter.

Madara uses high level fire jutsu to burn the wood
Sarutobi used his Adamantine staff to break through it
Tobirama used high level/high pressure water jutsu to cut it
Naruto used Karama/big Rasengan to break through it
Sasuke used a amateratsu clad Susanoo and sword to slice through

See the trend guys?

It's not invincible but it's not weak either. A katana in the right hands would cut it down...Sasukes hands to be specific.:flakez:

Heh I wonder how adult Sasuke's katana skills measure up to killer bee's now? I mean Bee's an old man now but would be nice to see an exhibition of just Kenjutsu between the two to see how much Sauce has improved:hint:

Breaks a pencil, decides wood is weak, goes to karate chop a tree with a diameter bigger than 2 cars.

Well it's a good thing Juugo didn't do anything to Sasuke's Susanoo. Because Juugo didn't add his curse seal power until after Sasuke cut the tree branch down.

After being when he was preparing to fight Six paths Obito.


OT: Op I see what you mean about its durability scale but the reason why it's so respected is because of its ability to bind chakra and absorb life energy.
