Cut the Fat is a Vintage Story mod by Lodeclaw. Cut the Fat lets you slice rendered fat lumps into smaller pieces with a knife or cleaver for flexible crafting and storage.
Why this mod is worth installing
Useful when you want to spend fat gradually, seal crocks or fuel oil lamps without opening a whole lump, or process small batches of hides.
What Cut the Fat adds
A knife cuts one rendered fat lump into three pieces, while a cleaver produces four. These portions work in most recipes that accept rendered fat, including oil lamps, crock sealing, and hide oiling.
The smaller portions can be placed on the ground, tables, and shelves, making them practical for both measured crafting and compact pantry storage. Recipes for machine parts still require a complete fat lump, so the mod does not replace every use of the original item.
