That bag has ' restoration ' written all over it :) Ditto to the above.  A good dose of oil,  even re-colour it if need be  to hide any scratches, discolouration etc.  . But to cut it, and the others  up for something else ? 

Nup :)  Restore. 

heres a pic of a bag  I restored  and sold.

Well restoring is ok, but I really don’t have the space to store 2 ekstra bags... and I think it will be hard to sell them... :) The one above I already cut up, but I will think about it some more before doing any more cutting :)

Did you get a pattern of it? It looked like a really good pattern.

Oooo! I love the chains on the strap!

I've seen people make very nice watch straps out of old leather "bomber" jackets.

G'Day and thank you for your responses, 

ByNelson , I do appreciate the differences in market demand. These  old   bags get snapped up real quick  here. But   I hope you're able to restore maybe at least one of them :)  and love to see what you'll do with the one you've cut up . The  old leather has a lovely natural  aged colour.  There maybe enough leather for a nice purse , wallet or a clutch bag just looking at your pic.

I will try to find a project for the leather that will work with the nice patina it already got. :) I really appreciate all your help and ideas. 

Kind regards Sarah
