If you want to do something quick, easy, non destructive, and cheap to clean up the cabinet. Get some GO-GO (Non pumice/no grit) give it a good rubdown with the GO-JO and a soft rag like an old t shirt. It will clean up the old finish, remove years of dirt, and darken the scratches. All in all will make a big improvement on the looks. Don't know if you have already have but pop off the handles (knobs) and soak them in a bowl of warm water and a bit of shampoo for 15-20 mins. Scrub with an old tooth brush or finger nail brush till nice and clean.
I take it that you like the sound of it!!!
