Alam, I'm agree with you, but I hope that the final result is at least worth of all the work...
 Anyway I've polished the surface: some of the cracks already to this point are visible just a little

Here we go! The restoration on this part of the scabbard is finished! Shirlak (thank you Marco
 ) and wax. Also the blade is well cleaned now.

Oh, the wood used for the sampir is actually quite good. Pity that it shattered into so many pieces. I wonder if it was because of the limitation in the wood that the carver had to orientate it in such a way that the grains run through the sampir rather than along the sampir.
