I'm cleaning up and restoring this DD Special #1. The pics don't show it very well, but there appears to be bluing on the tang. Very faded now. Is that authentic? I'd like to bring this back to as close to new as possible. Would this have been sold blued, or did someone do it later on?

Edit: Upon closer inspection, it looks like it may have been COMPLETELY blued. Same question.
