📋 About This Mod
In vanilla, weapons like the fire axe and bumper sword use the same impact sounds as sledgehammers and many blunt weapons use. This mod simply changes bladed weapons that did this to use sounds that make more sense, such as sword and knife impact sounds. There are no sounds included in this mod, these just change the impact data sets to use other vanilla sounds.
