Skadoosh
by Wintooo
Skadoosh adds eight vanilla-styled hammers that break a 3x3x1 area from one swing, and that also serve as a heavy weapon.
What it does
Each hammer is a new tool type built from existing vanilla materials. Its centre block is broken together with the blocks around it in a flat 3x3 layer, so large patches of ground can be cleared quickly. Hammers work more slowly than pickaxes, and they carry high damage with a slow attack speed, which makes them usable in combat as well.
The mod adds custom enchantments for hammers, including one that increases the depth of the area broken. Players who clear large stretches of land get a practical use out of it, and the same tools can be used against mobs. Skadoosh is a small project, created in a short time, and the author notes it may show some problems; a notice message is shown when that happens. Installation needs Fabric API, and the mod runs on the client and the server, so both sides need it. Files exist for 1.21 only, with the latest Fabric build 1.01-1.21 dated 2025-07-12, and the code is released under the MIT License without being open source.
Key features
Eight hammers
Eight hammers are added, each made from vanilla material types so they match the existing tool set.
Three by three breaking
Breaking the centre block also breaks the blocks beside it in a 3x3x1 area, the flat side of the broken region.
Depth enchantment
A custom enchantment for hammers extends the depth of the broken area, so the cleared region goes further in.
Combat use
Hammers deal high damage with a slow attack speed, so they can also be used to fight mobs.

Use cases
Clearing land
Players clearing large areas for building or terraforming can remove material faster than with a pickaxe.
Who it’s for: Players who want a simple vanilla-styled tool for clearing large areas, and server owners who want the same tools available to every player.
How it compares
Better Hammers is open source under the MIT License, works on Fabric with client and server, and covers 1.20.1 – 1.21.1, so it reaches earlier versions than Skadoosh. Hammer Mining runs on either side and has its own license, with files for 1.21 – 1.21.10. Hammer Mod is published under All rights reserved and works on client and server for 1.21 – 1.21.3, which goes further than Skadoosh's single 1.21 build.
