Apologies for no new weapon this week. I've been back porting this mod to 1.16.5 and 1.18.2
Description
Nitwit's armory brings 7 types of weapons. The macahuitl that when right clicked gives enhanced knockback on your next swing. The scythe that can be made with wood to netherite. The glaive with a special variant that when crafted does extra damage to undead. Double Sided Axes that do more damage and have almost double the durability of normal axes. Warpicks that double as weapon and pickaxe. Daggers that strike fast but are as fragile as they are deadly. And finally the Longsword that can be made with blade pieces from iron to netherite.
All weapons as of version 1.5.0
Available on curseforge and modrinth
