The place where i bought these two examples has (had?) some more, including some entire projectiles ... only that their wooden part is modern made; and i hate replicas

.
By the way and just for perusal; we call these projectiles 'virotes', a term derived from 'virar' ... meaning turning. Easy, no ?

... and Google does translate "virotes" to "bolts".
