What it does

Handle It Up is a NeoForge equipment mod that lets players craft tools with handles made from copper, amethyst, redstone or lapis lazuli. Many of these items have few uses in vanilla play, and the mod gives them a practical role in tool recipes. Diamond and netherite tools can be upgraded through the mod, and more of its content is meant to be found in play. Handle It Up runs on the server only, so players join without installing it. Files exist for 1.20.6, 1.21.1 and 1.21.4, and the latest is 1.2 for 1.21.4. The mod is published under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
