I think the black is iron scale as in this example.

This is the only Asian weapon I have seen use the black as decoration. All the other I have seen come from Africa, Somali, Shona, Massai? and last but not least the Congo. There are many military knives that are black but I think that is for other reasons. I will post picks of a seme I have with some black as decoration.
