Stick n' Stone
by Pigfection
With Stick n' Stone installed, players can craft wooden and stone weapon variants that extend the vanilla sword set on Fabric, Forge and NeoForge.
What it does
Stick n' Stone adds sword weapons built from wood and stone materials, with their own textures and models that are independent of other sword content. It needs Better Combat on every loader, and it runs on client and server, so the server and every player must both have it. The mod is published for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, with the latest Fabric file for 1.21.1 dated 2025-07-07.
The mod is developed by Pigfection, and its custom license does not make it open source, though its source code and issue tracker are publicly linked. Its first release was on 2024-03-04 and the most recent update is dated 2025-07-18. Addons such as Swords extend the weapon set with more Wood Stone variants. A resource pack based on Vanilla Style textures served as a baseline reference during development.

Use cases
Early-game weapons
Players who want a sword before reaching iron can craft wood and stone options from materials gathered in the first stages of a survival world.
Modded server with Better Combat
Server owners who already run Better Combat can add Stick n' Stone so the extra weapons use the same combat system.
Who it’s for: Survival players who want more sword options early in a world, and server owners who run Better Combat and want the same weapon set on the server.
How it compares
Lightning Weapons is open source under the MIT License, supports Fabric, Forge and NeoForge for 1.20.1 – 1.21.1 and runs on client and server. Stick n' Stone is not open source; it uses a custom license and also targets 1.20.1 and 1.21.1 on the same three loaders. More Swords is Fabric-only for 1.20.1 under the MIT License and is not open source.
