Player still experiences knockback even after disabling opponent's shield with axe.

Disabling a shield with an axe the player disabling still takes the knockback as if they had hit the shield with any other weapon.

Use an axe while someone is crouching with a shield to disable the shield and you will go flying back

Just like in Java the shield should be disabled without the player taking knockback.

In bedrock you take the knockback as if you hit the shield normally and also disable the shield as intended.
