Default Dark wood stock cleanup

On the subject of original finish stocks that are very old and grimy, do we leave them alone out of fear of destroying original finish or do people typically clean them up at risk of having to refinish stock?

The stock is particularly dark around the head from the photo so it may be pretty oily. Haven't seen in person yet but here is the photo.
