Short Sword
A lightweight resource pack that shortens all swords to give you better visibility and maximum screen space during PvP. Works perfectly on almost all versions and can be used as an overlay!
What this project does
- Shortens Sword Models: It shrinks the default size of all swords in Minecraft to prevent them from blocking your view.
- Enhances PvP Sight: Gives you a much clearer view of your opponents during intense combat
Why you should download it
- Vanilla-Friendly: It retains the classic, familiar texture style of standard Minecraft swords just shorter!

.minecraft/resourcepacksfolder, and activate it in-game. - Overlay Setup: For the best experience, make sure to move this pack to the very top of your selected resource packs list so it overrides other sword textures properly.
