Thanks Battara,

I have question;

The scabbard is seperated, as it is a couple of days away yet I do not know if it was rattan bound or kept together another way. Currently it is taped together, I will heat the tape with a hair dryer when it arrives to remove the tape but there will for sure be some sticky residue left behind. Not wanting to damage the timber, stain or patina in any way, what would be the best approach to cleaning up any stickyness left behind???

Thanks

Gav
