KS Crab Claw
by nugrevan
KS Crab Claw is a datapack-style item mod that adds a Crab Claw, a held item that extends a player's block reach by three blocks.
What it does
A recipe for the Crab Claw is added, and the item is inspired by a mob vote suggestion. Holding it in the hand gives the player three extra blocks of reach, so blocks further away can be interacted with. The server needs the mod, while players may add it, though the pack says no resource pack is needed to enjoy it. Files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and as a data pack, for 26.2 under the MIT License.
