polished one... You mean the "black widow" byf?

It's not polished. The blue is a little bit worn, but not bad. Currently, it's $1450... if you collect Luger and plan long-term play, you can still bid it a little bit higher...

I don't understand why many Luger collectors bidding on regular byf, 1937 S/42... supposedly, they should have common variations long time ago, and they should bid on that rare K that many collectors don't have. But ,,, God knows, probably bidding byf and 1937 for short term playing...
