Deepcutting
by Boneful
Deepcutting changes how stonecutters treat deepslate, so the regular deepslate recipes work on them without a Silk Touch workaround.
What it does
Stonecutters accept normal deepslate recipes, so players who lack Silk Touch no longer need cobbled deepslate to craft deepslate variants. The mod is inspired by the DeepslateCutting datapack by NoComment1105, which covered versions 1.20 and later. Deepcutting runs on Fabric, Forge and Quilt, with builds for 1.17 – 1.20.5 and the 1.20.5 files as latest. The server needs the mod, while the client can run without it. The code is covered by All rights reserved and is not open source.
Key features
Stonecutter deepslate recipes

No Silk Touch requirement
Players without Silk Touch can still obtain deepslate variants through stonecutting.
Adds deepslate variants
The mod includes new regular deepslate variants alongside the existing ones.

What the author says
Stonecutters now accept normal Deepslate in recipes instead of forcing cobbled deepslate, for all of you Silk Touch-users out there. Inspired by NoComment1105's DeepslateCutting mod, but is available for versions 1.20+ & can be installed as a datapack. No new regular deepslate variants though, unfortunately.
