How to determine if blade has bloodstains??

Hello all!

I have a Sudanese dagger from the Mahdiest revolt that was almost certainly used, although worn it has no stains or much pitting. I don't think blood whould be let on that long to be let to leave a stain. If I remember my science teachers lecture on blood a black light should show it up but if it's been cleaned many times I don't think it will work. Just my two cents!
