Mink oil will help but the leather has dried beyond complete recovery. I'm certain there are better products to use these days. Mink oil was the oil / preservative for leather a half century ago 
Hey it really works but it does stink. My early sixties baseball glove still looks new after all of it's use and years.

I need a Leatherman though. Someone who can reclad this.
It's only been used once.

I know they are rare nowadays but a shoe repair shop might be the ticket. I would think Boston would have a few still in business.
A distant relative of mine made his way though life operating a shoe repair shop. Very handy with leather was he. Living in Oklahoma he also did a great deal of saddle work. Being as you have everything necessary to duplicate, that would be the avenue I'd pursue. A machine to do the stitching would be a must and often found in a repair shop.

Not in my neighborhood. All those useful shops have closed.
Has anyone improved on this Sap design? I tried wooden and metal batons before but this design messes up a knee better.
I work Security.

Best tool for the job that I know of. Have you considered replacing it?
All the Cop shops have closed too. 
Wow. I would think that a metropolis the size of Boston would support multiple such shops. Shows you what I don't know. Perhaps something similar can be had from the net. I've never looked.

I've been looking at having one of these made.

That could deter some undesirable activities.
Way to big IMHO.
There's a billyclub inside that sap somewhere.
I could gimp it up maybe?
Hmm.
I don't know how to get to 'big IMHO,' wherever that is, but do you know the way to San Jose? It's not too big for my liking.
Must be the way the photos were taken.
If I wanted a cosh I could make one with a sock.
I guess I'll just have to look online for a replacement.
I'm in MA though. We just legalized Mace recently.

Is mink oil a spray?
I'm talking decades ago Bobby when I last used mink oil. At that time it was cream. I
Whatever the motives for restoring, all good my friend. I hope you have some success.
I think i might need it again is all. Last time i used it i i was outweighed.
I'm feeling outnumbered lately.
It's a racial thing. Downtown is not what it used to be when Detroit Red roamed. Now it's a play at the Paramount which was a movie theater when I grew up.
Still feels like America though. So I've got that.

I avoid questionable areas at all cost. I am licensed and carry. I do not ever plan to employee such but I am trained and prepared. In my upper sixties, I feel disadvantaged though I'm in great shape. We are not playing by the same rules I grew up with.
Im Iicensed to carry a stick. Not poinity.
I haven't actually seen a play since "Soap" debuted at a College.
And why are millennials pudgy?
Could be cause they live near me. Veggies are not emphasized in my neighborhood.

My Sap would empower the guys.
