What is Butchery?
Butchery is a mod that adds a whole new level of immersion and realism to harvesting mobs and animals. While you can still kill mobs the traditional way, this mod introduces an alternative, using the new Butcher’s Knife. When you slay a mob with this knife, instead of dropping their usual loot, the mob will drop a corpse (except for sheep, which drop both their corpse and wool). Once you have their corpse, you can begin the full butchering process.
