Title: Re: Oil Quenched Case Hardened Finish Question

The odds of me ever owning a Krag with the original finish intact is dependent on me winning the lottery. I am an optimist, however, and want to be prepared. Before I spend my lottery winnings, I want to be able to distinguish the original finish from blueing.

P.S. Stephen Lester of Turnbull recently told me they don't do any Krag work.
