Horn cracks... again?

Brian, we're just having fun. We're glad you told us about olive oil. I may try it.

Thanks.

A few years ago I knew a professional bookbinder/restorer.
He used olive oil on the leather after the book was bound.
He said it was the best treatment he had found for the leather.

IIRC -- Yvsa reported here that using olive oil
as a blade treatment was a big no-no.
It got gummy.

It may be that when it is incorporated into
leather, horn, wood, or other material
it behaves differently.
Or is just protected from oxygen.
