Fire Blade
Fire Blade adds a sword to Forge 1.20.1 that can make explosive fire attacks, and it can be crafted from materials the mod's own recipe collects.
What it does
Fire Blade is a combat addition for Forge 1.20.1. The sword is built to sit alongside standard weapons: it takes part in normal melee combat and works with enchantments such as Sharpness and Sweeping Edge. Its special effect is an explosive fire attack, which makes it a weapon for players who want more from their weapon tier than vanilla swords offer.
The mod includes its own crafting recipe, so players gather the listed materials and craft the sword rather than finding it in loot. Its textures and item model are custom 16x16 art written to match a fiery, cursed theme. The mod is built on MixinExtras to reduce conflicts with other Forge mods.
Installation needs Forge for 1.20.1 and nothing else. Fire Blade runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. It is released under All rights reserved and is not open source, and the only build listed is 1.0.0 for 1.20.1, published 2026-02-13.
