Nice score Neil mate

Well? Enough about the leather, where was the tool made?

[Neil]

It has a DRGM number so German.  The company name appears to be Sabina    which means nothing to me.

Its another name for Bontgen & Sabin, better known simply as Bonsa

That makes more sense now, I've seen these kits on ebay with the Bonsa name   How old is that catalogue?  Just trying to get a feel for the age of this kit.

I've used Liberon Leather Cream on a few things.  Works quite well.

No idea how old the catalog is. The little folding scissors pictured on the cover came out in the early 1900's, then disappeared at the start of WWII. So that narrows it down to a 40 year window.
