I don't believe we've *ever* seen lavender blood in the TV episodes, and we've
seen Klingons slash their palms on several occasions.  (Worf during his
re-commendation ceremony and Martok to prove he wasn't a Changeling.)  We've
also seen wounded Klingons bleed red.  Still, Paramount usually makes sure
Vulcans and Romulans bleed green!

I imagine fake blood only comes in one color.  (Do they buy it off the
shelf in
Hollywood?)  Obviously ST6 had a bigger budget and much more time to bother
getting all the details right.

Of course, to Klingons it's all just a different shade of {Doq} anyway.
