The '''Companie of Knights Bachelor''' is a [[medieval]] [[recreation]] group in [[Australia]]. It was formed in [[Brisbane]] but also has a branch in [[Adelaide]].

The Companie is set in the years 1150-1250AD, in the [[Holy Land]]s. They re-enact the period of the [[Third Crusade]], and for public displays, etc, we are based in the year 1195, at Acre. [[Tournament]]s, etc, held in this 'time' are called the "Acre Tournaments". The period is rich in cultural evidence, such as [[culture|lifestyle]], [[dress]], [[war]]fare, trade, [[religion]], [[philosophy]], etc, and this was another deciding factor in the choosing of this period for re-enactment purposes. As far as [[armour]], [[weapon]]s and [[clothing]] goes, the period is wide enough so that a [[barrel helm]] and a [[nasal helm]] being seen on the battlefield together was common, even though they fall at opposite ends of the timeline, the barrel helm being of the later period.
