My first recommendation is don't be in a hurry and force the removal.
Next, I like Pecards Antique Leather dressing; saturate the outside of the scabbard on both sides and when that is absorbed, reapply. Use an eyedropper and apply WD40 or a similar lubricant on the upright blade on both sides and let it drip down on the inside of the scabbard; do this repeatedly and slowly over days gently trying to work the blade out while continually reapplying the lubricant. More times than not you will get a successful result.
