They don't look like potential weapons to me even though they are pointed. Too much thin metal. Maybe drawn rather than folded & welded. End openings too large/out of proportion for a proper spear shaft. No way to secure a shaft to point other than a friction fit. My guess is they are some type of machine parts for a cutting apparatus.

Regards,
Ed
