Mattock
by Astrazoey
Mattock is a balanced multi-tool for Fabric and NeoForge, letting builders switch between several tools without leaving one item in hand.
What it does
Mattock combines the work of several vanilla tools in a single item, aimed at players who build and do not want to swap tools while constructing. Its mining speed is set at a reasonable level, and enchantments such as Efficiency cannot be applied to it. The author describes the tool as vanilla-friendly, so it does not outclass existing tools. Files cover 1.21.10 and 26.2, and it runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. It is released under the MIT License, and the source code is public.
Key features
Single multi-tool
One item covers the tasks that would otherwise need several vanilla tools in turn.
Balanced mining speed
The tool mines blocks at a moderate speed, so it does not replace the dedicated tools for every task.
Enchantment limits
Efficiency and similar enchantments cannot be applied to the tool, which keeps its speed in check.

What the author says
The Mattock is a balanced multi-tool that can mine any block at a reasonable speed, but cannot be enchanted with efficiency. It's a jack of all trades tool that doesn't outclass the existing tools. This is mostly for builders who don't want to switch between several tools while they're building.
