We propose the new concept of Krivine ordered combinatory algebra ( $\mathcal{^KOCA}$ ) as foundation for the categorical study of Krivine's classical realizability, as initiated by Streicher (2013).

We show that $\mathcal{^KOCA}$ 's are equivalent to Streicher's abstract Krivine structures for the purpose of modeling higher-order logic, in the precise sense that they give rise to the same class of triposes. The difference between the two representations is that the elements of a $\mathcal{^KOCA}$ play both the role of truth values and realizers, whereas truth values are sets of realizers in $\mathcal{AKS}$ s.

To conclude, we give a direct presentation of the realizability interpretation of a higher order language in a $\mathcal{^KOCA}$ , which showcases the dual role that is played by the elements of the $\mathcal{^KOCA}$ .
