No Of Hand Placing
by gh0stzt
No Of Hand Placing stops blocks from being placed when they are held in the off-hand, so players move them to the main hand first.
What it does
A block held in the off-hand can no longer be placed, so a player who wants to build with it has to move it into the main hand first. The mod is a client-side only Fabric mod, so only the client needs it and servers run without it. Its only published build is 1.0.0 for 1.21.11, released on 2026-08-31 under All rights reserved, which means the code is not open source.
Key features
Off-hand placement blocked
Blocks held in the off-hand are prevented from being placed, keeping off-hand items from being used to build.
Main-hand placing
Placing works as usual once the block is moved into the main hand, so the change only affects the off-hand.
Client-side behaviour
The rule applies on the client, so a server running without the mod still follows vanilla placement rules.

What the author says
No Of Hand Placing prevents blocks from being placed while held in the off-hand. If you're holding a block in your off-hand, you won't be able to place it anymore — you'll need to move it to your main hand first.
