The best way to get into touch with the company is through our Contact Us section, where we can answer any questions you might have!

No equipment or prior experience is required to join! However, new members are expected to work towards attaining a kit and pursuing some aspect of medieval reenactment

Yes you can. Members are not restricted from joining and or being active in other similar organizations.

We have branches spread across the United States. Our largest branch is in Texas around the Austin area. We also have members in Florida, Alabama, North Carolina, and New York.

We encourage applicants to apply when they feel that they will be able to be active within the company. Please apply at a later time when you will be able to regularly attend events.

However, we understand that life happens and sometimes people will need to take a break and therefore exceptions do apply.

One of the core principles of the company is fighting in accurate knightly kit. We highly discourage the use of modern concessions such as plastic armor and wolf-rib or bar grill helmets. We prioritize high-level kit over sport optimization. Therefore, when fighting with the company members are expected to wear as much kit as possible.

Currently we are hoping to attend and host at least 4 major events a year, with smaller gatherings and practices planned in between. A staple of the company is the SCA’s Gulf Wars, held in Lumberton Mississippi. We also plan on holding an annual deed of arms in Texas.

However, The Sable Hammer can potentially travel anywhere in the country if the event is worthy!

Tabards can be bought or made by anyone as long as they are primarily maroon in color and clearly display the company's coat of arms on the front and back. Sashes and surcoats displaying the company heraldry are also acceptable. Reputable makers can be recommended by company members upon request.
