Sutlers are generally recognized as the frontier-type merchants associated with this era. They typically camp with the buckskinners at a rendezvous, and sell from a blanket or a tent at such events. Merchandise offered should be period correct for 17th/18th century events, and encompasses such items as tentage, costumes, trade silver, camp supplies, footwear, woodenware, dishes and cutlery, knives, tomahawks, blankets, ironware, candles, and lanterns.

Sites strictly limited to the making/sale/repair of black powder guns should be submitted to the Guns/Blackpowder category.
