Hello,
Thanks a lot Kronckew,

I have real lacquer ( gomme laque- kerria lacca )but it's yellow-translucent,
do you know which pigments I can use for tint it in black (dark brown...)?

The fullers on the blade with Indo persian influence are interesting, don't really know if they are old or quite recent,

A production of eastern china ( Xinjiang area...), close with tibet,india, tadjikistan ?

or just the copy/fantasy of a craftsman/ carver from Beijing ?...
China is so big !...
