MInecraft 1.12 Adding New Block Error

[darkfire 0]

Hello I was trying to program a mod for 1.12.2 because me and my friends are still playing on a old server that's running some mod that are only for 1.12.

I wanted to add my own stuff to it, but i keep running in to a problem when adding a new "basic" blocks

 

package com.DarkMod.BetterTools.Blocks;

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;

import com.DarkMod.BetterTools.BetterTools;

import net.minecraft.block.Block;
import net.minecraft.block.material.Material;
import net.minecraft.creativetab.CreativeTabs;

public class BetterTools_Blocks {
	
	public static final List<Block> BLOCKS = new ArrayList<Block>();
	
	//Regular Blocks
	public static Block test_block;
	public static Block test_block2;
	
	public static void InitBlock() {
      	                                                  // ERROR vvvvvvvvvvvv
		test_block = RegisterBlock("test_block", new Block(Material.IRON), BetterTools.tab_bettertools);		
	}

	public static Block RegisterBlock(String blockName, Block block, CreativeTabs tabs) {		
		block.setUnlocalizedName(blockName);
		block.setRegistryName(blockName);
		block.setCreativeTab(tabs);
		
		BetterTools.logger.info("Blocks | " + block);
      
		BLOCKS.add(block);
		return block;
	}

}

 

When i register a new block using the Base class  Block(). my test block is set to Block{minecraft:air}

Resulting in the block not working  and returning the error
