Impossible to date with certainty, but leather bindings were usually worn by officers and could be as early as WW1 all the way up to WW2. Leather bindings tended to be discontinued in the 1940s, but that is a private purchase Glen, so could have been ordered by the officer as late as that time.

I did not understand that it is not leather. I don't know what you mean by synthetic. Is it grosgrain cloth?

It is not grosgrain...when I saw the pictures first time I thought It was leather, but Seller told me It is not...I asked him if it was Sky (syntetic leather) but he told me that It is some kind of sinthetyc cloth...nylon or similar...but not grosgrain...
