It's a Luger holster, WWI period. Looks like it is worth salvaging, don't grease it up.

It looks dead, Give it a decent burial. Jerry Burney

It's not dead yet. It's just pining.

W2K, Interesting that you used a Russian AK bayonet to hold it open. I had purchased a few like that years ago with no markings, that were said to be of Russian manufacture. TH

This is actually an example of a holster that has been VERY wet. It has shrunk and hardened.You can see the roller buckle is very rusty. Probably only a few parts are salvageable. It can never be restored to what it once was. The stitching will be weak as well. Jerry Burney
