What does Ironclad Tools do in Graveyard Keeper?
Ironclad Tools is a free Graveyard Keeper mod from ProjectMods that stops your equipped gear from wearing out. Turn it on and your axe, pickaxe, shovel, sword, hammer and fishing rod stay at full condition no matter how hard you work them. Tools breaking halfway through a mining trip — and the constant re-forging and replacing that follows — is one of Graveyard Keeper's quiet time sinks, and this mod removes it entirely. You can dig, chop, farm and fight for as long as you like without a single trip back to the workbench to repair or rebuild your kit. Flip the mod off and your gear starts wearing down again exactly like normal, so the choice is always yours.
Which tools and gear does Ironclad Tools protect?
Ironclad Tools looks after whatever you have equipped in Graveyard Keeper, which covers the full spread of working gear: your axe for chopping, pickaxe for mining, shovel for digging graves and soil, sword for dungeon fights, hammer for building and repairs, and even your fishing rod. While the mod is on, each of these holds at full condition as you use it, so the item you're actively swinging never ticks down toward breaking. Because it targets equipped gear, it naturally follows whatever you switch to — pull out the pickaxe and it's protected, swap to the axe and that's protected too. That means you can run a long, mixed session of mining, chopping and fighting without watching any single tool wear thin.
Does Ironclad Tools repair worn gear, or just stop new wear?
While Ironclad Tools is switched on, whatever you're holding sits at full condition in Graveyard Keeper — so even a tool that was already a bit chipped stops degrading and stays topped up while it's equipped and the mod is active. In practice that means you don't have to start with a fresh, perfectly-forged item to feel the benefit; equip the gear you've got, turn the mod on, and it holds at maximum from there. The effect lasts as long as the mod is enabled. If you flip Ironclad Tools back off, your tools resume wearing down from wherever they are, just like vanilla, so nothing is changed permanently — the protection simply applies for as long as you want it on.
How do I switch Ironclad Tools on and off?
Ironclad Tools uses one simple Enabled switch as its master control. Turn it on and your equipped tools and gear stop losing condition; turn it off and they wear down again like normal Graveyard Keeper. There's nothing else to set up — no per-tool options or values to juggle — which keeps it easy to use exactly when you want it. Fancy a relaxed building or mining marathon with no maintenance? Flip it on. Want the normal challenge back, where keeping your kit repaired is part of the loop? Flip it off. Because the switch is instant and reversible, you can even use it selectively: protect your gear during a big grind, then return to normal upkeep for the rest of your run.
Why would I use Ironclad Tools in Graveyard Keeper?
In Graveyard Keeper, tools slowly lose condition as you use them and eventually break, which means interrupting whatever you're doing to trek back, re-forge or replace them, and then trudge out again. Ironclad Tools from ProjectMods deletes that whole chore. It's ideal for long mining runs deep in the caves, marathon building sessions, or any stretch where stopping to fix your kit would kill the momentum. It's also a relief for newer players who haven't yet set up an efficient forge-and-repair loop and don't want tool upkeep getting in the way of learning the game. Because you can toggle it off whenever you like, you keep the option of the normal maintenance challenge — you just don't have to deal with it every single session.
