Overview
Minecraft classifies Soul Wall Torch as a light-emitting block. This is a Creative-mode block; Survival players will never hold one. It breaks almost instantly, with a hardness of just 0.
You can break it by hand without losing the drop. Breaking it produces Soul Torch. It gives off a dim light level 10, enough to see by but not to stop mobs spawning.
Because it is transparent it does not block light. A blast resistance of 0 means a single creeper will clear it away. It is not used in any crafting recipe.
Properties
Soul Wall Torch resists blasts at 0, which is not enough to survive anything explosive nearby. Light passes through it, and it emits at level 10. Broken normally it drops Soul Torch rather than itself; Silk Touch is what returns the block, and Fortune raises the ordinary drop instead.
