Just Enough Claymores

by Saturn_Dog_Enthusiast

Just Enough Claymores adds Claymore swords to Minecraft for NeoForge, a two-handed weapon type modeled on the Scottish sword of the same name.

NeoForgeClient and serverAll rights reserved1.21.1

What it does

The mod adds Claymore weapons to the game as a two-handed sword type. Its blade is long and broad with an edge on both sides, modeled on the historical claymore, and its hilt carries long quillons that angle toward the blade and end in quatrefoils.

Better Combat is required and must be installed alongside Just Enough Claymores, since the two-handed handling depends on it. The mod runs in the client and server environment, so both the server and every player need it. Files are published for NeoForge only, and the latest one is 1.1.5 for 1.21.1, released on 2025-07-28. The code is not open source and is released under All rights reserved.

Key features

  1. Three Claymore weapons

    The mod adds three Claymore swords to the game, each with its own blade and hilt.

  2. Two-handed combat

    Claymores are handled as two-handed swords, with the handling provided through Better Combat.

  3. Historical design

    The blade and crossguard follow the Scottish claymore, with a long broad double-edged blade and quatrefoil quillon ends.

  4. Gaelic-derived naming

    Weapon names trace back to the Gaelic term for great sword, tying the items to their historical origin.
