The chipping finish looks more like flaking case hardening than bluing to me. I have a 1918 GHE12 that has similar and odd flaking of the case hardening. The floorplate looks cased rather than blued and doesn't look like it's flaking. The top tang is the same but is flaking along the edges. Are we sure the frame has been blued?
