I'm no expert on blueing anything but have used the BirchWood Casy cold blueing solution to do this to various items. I know that it will not work on aluminum but will work on most other metals. Check it out and maybe search out their website and see what they say about it. There are plenty of bamboo guys here and I'll bet they will inform you shortly.
