Marshal's Kit
originally printed in May 2003
Each local Crown Marshal should have a marshals
kit that is brought to every event. It contains all the
necessary items required to measure weapons, qualify
combatants, and do minor adjustments or repairs if
necessary. Authorized marshals are encouraged to
assemble a kit for personal use as well. This is the
minimum list of recommended items and their uses:
Testing and Measuring Equipment
Fish scale or similar (good for weighing items
under 10 lbs.). This will probably need a cord that
loops over the fish scale hook, to suspend weapons
and aid in their weighing.
2" diameter washer with a 3/4. diameter hole (used
to check the curvature of axe and mace flanges. It
is also placed over the end of a sword tip to check
the depth that the tip will penetrate a legal helm.

10-foot (10') tape measure (minimum length)
One pound (1#) weight for flexibility testing of
schläger blades
