Bone Knife
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.
A simple mod that adds a craftable weapon out of bone and flint via a shapeless recipe. The Bone Knife is slightly weaker than a wooden sword, but easy to make and highly enchantable, more than a gold sword.
I needed a weak starting weapon for a custom map that could be easy to craft from non-exploitable materials. I wanted to make it possibly useful later in the game, so gave it a pretty bonkers enchantability rating.
