I recently bought a left-handed Fallkniven F1 sheath. I noticed it is different than the right-handed version. The left-handed version has a thicker tab that acts as the detent to hold the blade securely and it does hold it much more securely than the RH version. There is also a bit of plastic at the bottom of the sheath on the inside that acts as an anti-fore and aft movement block. There is an L on the back of the sheath too, designating left-handed. There is zero rattle in the left-handed sheath and I can turn the blade upside down with it unsnapped and shake it and the blade won't fall out. Interesting. Anyone else notice this?

Im glad that there addressing the issues, not satisfied with the retention of my right hand sheath I modified it....Works very well. used a old spring steel money clip and cut it to fit...has an audible "click" now when the knife in slid in the sheath
