I have to respectfully disagree with Tom's analysis of the leather condition. It is not dry and cracking, in fact the leather looks to be soft and supple on the front surface. The backside has what I frequently see on older leather pieces. A sort of microbal leather termite. I am sure there is some technical term for it but I recently saw it on Dutch holsters. It was on all three of them in varying degrees of severity. Jerry Burney
