Hello Detlef,

Have all a look to this threads, by the first one the handle is turned also in the "wrong" direction and the "show"-side of the scabbard is the one which is normally the back side:

Here is the handle in the correct direction but the show side of the scabbard is again unusual:

I think I have asked this question before: Why is the show side of the scabbard mainly by this kris with MOP from WWII area turned around?
I believe we need a poll on this to get some numbers; on old as well as on MOP kris (seperately)...
Regards,
