What is this?
Swords in Minecraft are quite large, and many players are uncomfortable playing with them in PvP. I personally don't like very short and/or retextured swords, I like them to be vanilla-like and not too short, but shorter. I couldn't find a completed resourcepack of what I needed that was up to date, so I made my own.
Features
All swords are 2 pixel shorter.
