Default Zulu?

hello together
also the same friend. These two spearheads (zulu?)
I am a bit perplexed, they are very heavy. 1m length, 10mm thickness and the other 8mm
real or not? the color of the material makes me worry. I'm not even sure if this is iron!
One idea that might be?

Very nice blades. Not my field of interest and knowledge, but i would say that these spearblades are Masai.
