Will I can tell you for fact that the skill of the fire staff/water staff/dom staff etc, does not really dye - nor does the raven staff. I would very much like to see at least some change in this. I love to dye my weapons.

most likely all swords/axes/hammer only the handles dye.

i've dyed all my swords/axes pink, and all that changed on them were the handles.

now if the blade went pink.. that would be awesome!

Yeah, it seems to me that most staffs don't dye very well.

Although these aren't on your list...
I dyed my Necro bone staff Silver, and the difference is noticable, even if not by a lot, but when I dyed my cruel staff Purple, it had no noticable effect whatsoever.

Yes, but Chaos Axes dye backwards. I've never dyed a Storm Bow, but given their default color, I would imagine it works via the same mechanism.

Dye it Green, it turns pinkish.
Dye it Black, it turns white... you get the idea.

it's not like you can dye the bow red and have a pretty dark side style stormbow.

And when I was a noob, I saw a guy with a shadow shield, and thought it was a dyed skeleton shield, and asked him "wow, how did you do that to your skeleton shield? A black dye?" and the guy said "You gotta mix black + silver, then use it"

... thanks for wasting my 6.5k, you jerk!

If by ascalon razor you mean the collector skin for the longsword, then it only dyes the handle as well, it makes for a color+darkness look.
