That Dagger One
by Azmah_
That Dagger One adds a single forbidden dagger to Forge 1.20.1, a weapon whose powers are meant to be discovered in play.
What it does
The dagger shoots small fireballs that use experience points as ammunition. A creature struck by it can be lifted into the air and levitated for a set amount of time. Striking a sheep with the dagger triggers a surprise, and the item also works as a pickaxe, though it cannot break bedrock or obsidian. The item has a durability of 1227.
The mod is client-side only, so servers do not need it and players can join without installing anything. It is published for Forge and for Minecraft 1.20.1 only. The author describes the dagger as deliberately large in scope and recommends playing with friends. The mod is not open source; it is released under All rights reserved.

How it compares
Dagger Enchantments runs on Forge for 1.20.1 – 1.20.4 and needs both client and server, so every player must install it. More Weapons! also targets 1.20.1 on Forge, but adds a range of weapons rather than one item, and it too is client and server with All rights reserved. Daggers and purpur is MIT licensed and client and server, while That Dagger One stays client-side only.
