Ice Sword Mod
Players who want a frost-themed weapon for combat can add Ice Sword Mod, which puts a freezing sword into the game on Forge for 1.20.1.
What it does
The Ice Sword is described as a legendary weapon forged from pure ice, and it is the centre of the mod. Its blade freezes the mobs it hits, slowing them and in some cases trapping a target inside solid ice, which makes escape difficult. A right-click sends out a shockwave that chills and halts mobs close to the player, and the sword also releases icy particles while held, giving the holder a frost aura. Walking across land leaves a trail of snow behind the player.
The mod adds a less weighty sword that can still freeze mobs, and it is listed under the Equipment and Adventure categories. The Ice Sword is made from a Packed Ice Stick, so the recipe turns simple materials into a frost weapon. The author notes that the sword has uses in snow biomes, where the freezing effects can be applied to enemies spawning there.
Ice Sword Mod runs on Forge for 1.20.1, and only the client needs it. The files were published on 2026-01-31 and last updated on 2026-02-03, and the mod is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
