Miscellaneous Mod
Miscellaneous Mod, a Forge mod for Minecraft 1.20.1, adds swords with slash attacks, a sharpener, a sawblade and functional blocks.
What it does
Sharpened weapons gain a chance to perform a slash attack that deals extra damage, and the chance rises with the sharpening tier. A sharpener, crafted from a sawblade, applies the sharpening to swords, and gold swords are excluded from the effect. Sharpening trades some attack speed and efficiency for higher damage, and it lowers enchantability and durability.
The mod adds new tools, items and a functional block alongside the swords. The author describes it as a mix of swords, functional blocks and items, and recipes for the sharpener and sharpened swords are listed in the tables. Only the client needs nothing extra beyond the mod itself: servers and players both run it, since the environment is client and server.
Installation requires Forge for 1.20.1, and the mod is published only for that version. The author plans to focus future work on newer versions, with support for NeoForge and older Forge builds to follow gradually. The code is available in a public source repository and issues are tracked publicly, while the mod is released under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial 4.0 license and is not open source.

What the author says
Also I am more interested in supporting newer versions, but I do realize that there are a lot of great mods for older versions so I will try to support 1.21+, 1.18.X, 1.19.X, 1.16.X?, 1.12.2 and maybe 1.7.10, more modern versions will get more priority and support for these if it does happen will be gradual starting…
