That is a great possibility..as in the Edged Weapons Forum..we encounter endless mismatched knives and bayonets..to their scabbard counterpart..I would not doubt that the same thing happened here. The thinking..would be..." if it fits together..then it is usable". No telling somewhere along the timeline that one part was separated from the other as we see this mostly with bayonets of all types. Some swords curvatures were as closely made as others from other countries. Still an interesting combination you found Feldgrau!!...and good detective work in providing a pic of a Dutch scabbard Regards Larry

I know out of respect you call me "Sir"..and I appreciate that ...no need to call me sir..as we are all brothers in collecting. The anak anak dari gereja ku call me Om Larry...thats all I would expect from them as from their young age. mengerti Ja?
I am interested also for information in the Indonesian cutlery production. It would be interesting to see some swords. The only swords I have seen during my visits there were used and abused Japanese swords left over from the war being used in the field to clear weeds. Would be interesting to see Indo sword making. I believe most of their equipment may have been supplied by outside sources also. Keep it coming Feld Grau...interesting topic! Best Regards Larry
