I suggest this stuff for dried out leather .

It will initially darken a bit but with time the original color returns .
Inhibits mold and mildew .

These types of daggers start showing up after 1920 I have a few of them and have shown them to Artzi and he confirmed that they are the second quarter of the 20th century. Also many of these daggers were brought back after WW1 AND WW2. I have an old one with a belt and it has a zippered pouch the zipper is a YKK brand so it dates it to the late 1940s.

Fed a lovely Kaskara scabbard very dried out with this stuff 3-4 years ago; it is still supple and has not dried out .

Good stuff .
