What are your thoughts on restoring this piece? Obviously the scabbard is in very bad shape, what do you think I do with it? Should I just leave it "as is" or try to find someone to put new ray skin on it? Or is that something that I can do myself? And where does one find ray skin anyway? Should the hgrip wrap be cleaned - and if so do you have any thoughts on how to do that?

Again, all help and suggestions are welcome and appreciated.

Best Regards,
Tim
