I did the cleaning job of the scabbard (only with warm water and a sponge to remove the worst dirt), and beneath the dirt a very "unfledged" scabbard appeared (to my fright). Fortunately Arjan was so kind to transform the scabbard for me to the result as it is now. Maurice |

Yes to take dirt off but not patina is difficult work!

For just the dirt soap and water is fine. Anything abrasive will take off the patina.
