Bone Bolt is a craftable projectile weapon in Valheim. It becomes available after building or using a black forge, and it is also crafted there. As with other bolts, it is meant to be stocked in quantity rather than used one at a time, making it part of the game’s ranged combat progression once black forge crafting is unlocked.
Its recipe information shown in the sources indicates that a single craft produces 20 Bone bolts. The available source data does not clearly expose the full ingredient list in a readable way, so only the confirmed crafting output can be stated with confidence here. The important practical takeaway is that Bone Bolt is a batch-crafted ammunition type, so players should expect to produce it in stacks and keep a reserve for repeated use.
Because it is tied to the black forge, Bone Bolt sits in the mid-to-late game crafting tier rather than the early game. Unlocking it signals access to a higher crafting tier and a stronger ranged ammunition option compared with basic early bolts. If you are preparing for extended expeditions, it is worth crafting Bone Bolt in advance so you do not run short during combat, since bolt ammunition is consumed quickly when fighting from range.

If you are organizing supplies, Bone Bolt is best treated as a reusable stock item: make it in bulk, store extra stacks safely, and bring it along when you expect longer fights or dungeon runs.
