Mostly a recently finished knife sheath, but includes my Colonial era glasses and my new shooting bag in supporting roles.

The knife is brand new so it ain't wear and tear. The knifemaker dyed it.

Repete,
Believe it or not...here's what I did on the sheath. I started out to just use "100% Neatsfoot Oil Pure. I put several coats on and it was splotchy on the leather, and also revealed a bunch of tiny polka-dots that didn't look like they were going to go away. So I broke out the Fiebings Russet Leather Dye and cut it with Fiebings Leather Dye Reducer, then applied it to the leather. Mind you, this is after several coats of neatsfoot oil.

In short, I don't think I can replicate the color!
