📋 About This Mod
Updated 6/3/23 limited to 2h sword parts only for now. Should also be fully compatible with RBM. Due to changes made to the game the mod has to be reworked from scratch. But should be more stable going forward for future patches.
Disclaimer If you install this and craft weapons using the parts then uninstall it you will crash when you load that save.
Crafting Part Workshop is an attempt to give you way more control over the weapons you create. None of the part changes will effect default troops or alter what items the game creates by default. So troops wont start suddenly throwing rakes or throwing away their axes. You can decide what you want to make whether it is more detailed 2h weapons, more ornamental pikes, or you know.... Throwing glaives.
Currently adds the following:
2 Hand Swords: adds 65 parts left off the 2h sword list originally that all fit and function perfect as 2h swords which were severely lacking in high end options.
2 Hand Maces: adds 48 Parts taking you from the original 1 combination to hundreds.(Some mace combos do not line up perfect visually)
Pikes: Adds some new handle options from the longer shaft options of pole arms as well as full range of guards and pommels.
Throwing axes: adds 39 parts off the one hand axe list letting you make any one hand axe as a throwing axe. Adds appropriate holsters for every variant without effecting the base 1H weapons. Lastly allows all throwing axes crafted or not to be used as one handed weapons. (Just press X to toggle.)
Throwing Knives: adds 80+ dagger parts to the throwing knife crafting list if you could craft it as a dagger before you can craft it as a Throwing knife now! All with working holsters!
Included Native fixes: Fixes inability to toggle throwing axes to melee, Fixes inability to pick up thrown knives, Fixes issue with cleavers still showing on back when equipped.
Javelins: Adds many new heads converted from pike part list (throw rakes if you want) also added some longer shaft options (Longer then base javelins not like pike length) so now you can craft full throwing spears. Also gives full range of guards and pommels. (All with working quivers)
Installation: Place folder in you modules folder.
Current issues: All added javelins use same quiver mesh. (May alter this later to be tier based.)
If you make super long javelins they will appear shorter in the quiver.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge crafting expansion: 1,930 endorsements and 76k downloads show it's a community favorite.
- Adds hundreds of new combinations for 2H maces and throwing knives, giving crafters tons of variety.
- Includes native bug fixes that improve the base game experience, not just new content.
⚠️ Cons
- Currently limited to 2H sword parts only as of the last update — other weapon parts are temporarily unavailable.
- Uninstalling after crafting with parts will crash your save, so you're locked in once you use it.
- Some mace combos don't line up perfectly visually, which might bother perfectionists.
For Bannerlord players who love deep crafting and want more control over their weapons, especially those who felt 2H swords lacked high-end options. Also great for throwing weapon enthusiasts who want to use axes and knives more flexibly. Skip if you're not into crafting or if you're on a version older than 2023, since the mod was reworked for recent patches.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you're on a game version compatible with the June 2023 update, as the mod was reworked for stability.
- If you use RBM, the mod is fully compatible, but test with a new save to avoid conflicts.
- Don't uninstall the mod after crafting parts — it will crash your save, so commit to it or use a separate save.
