"Yes (given that it's sometimes difficult to determine this in pictures), your Luger looks like it may be refinished to me. "k" block should be in 1922 or 1923.

What do you mean the "k" block? The SN ends in "h".

"The edges do look sharp in most places, but appear rounded in others in the photos. "

Yes I have noticed this. I paid allot of money from a reputable firearms dealer that I have known for years. He had personally owned this one. I think he may have made a mistake!

"Areas like the frame rails should be in the white. Take a look inside. Also the recoil spring link and the lock pin on the toggle main axle. "

What is the recoil spring link? The lock pin? I understand these questions are something I should understand. Sorry.

Here is what I found so far. The inside of the rails have been blued. Also there is a pin into the top of the pistol which the toggle rotates around. The side of this pin has been blued. The one in the back of the pistol which the toggle also pivots around is blued. This does not look goid at all.
