📋 About This Mod
Description
At a glance, this is a melee sound replacement mod. But it also comes with a couple more features that might make it stand out from the rest:
- Completely new sounds for blunt weapons, bats, batons, small blades (knives), and large blades (machetes)
- Material impact fix for blades hitting concrete
- Unique impact and sounds for blades, for some weird reason Bethesda decided that blades would share some impacts with blunt weapons (why???)
- Unarmed impact sounds and compatibility with AnotherOne's katana mod
In the future, I hope to cover more melee weapons.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 576 endorsements and over 117k downloads.
- Fills a specific niche for melee-focused players who want better audio feedback.
- Simple audio mod that doesn't require heavy scripting or dependencies.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects audio, so no gameplay or visual changes.
- Last updated in 2022, may not be fully compatible with the latest Skyrim updates.
- Author notes it's for 'the four of you' — clearly a niche mod, not for everyone.
For Skyrim players who primarily use melee and are tired of the default hit sounds. If you're a stealth archer or mage, you'll get nothing from this. Skip if you want gameplay changes — this is purely audio.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a simple audio mod, just drop the files into your Data folder or use a mod manager.
- If you're on Skyrim Special Edition, make sure to grab the correct version for your game (LE vs SE).
- Load order doesn't matter much for audio mods, but placing it after other sound mods ensures it takes priority.
