That looks like modern metallic silver spray paint to me.


If you want to criticise someone first walk a mile in their shoes. Then, when they come after you, you'll be a mile ahead and they'll be barefoot.

You would need to see the hilt fittings also. This one with the screws at the bottom is a Klaas and they DID have better lacquer covering the silver fittings, so it could be OK, depending on the condition of the hilt and the lacquer on those parts.
I have seen near mint/mint Klaas DRKs with that much original lacquer in the past.

I agree with Ron but I think you would probably have to see this one in hand to tell for sure. However, from what I can see the overall condition does not look too good indicating the lacquer or whatever it is ---is not original.
