Dayak spears?

Hi All,

Purchased these spears few years back. The previous owner told me that they were from the Dayak tribe. Would really appreciate your feedbacks. Thank you.

I don't think these are Dayak.

However the bottom one could be from Java? The other one - I don't know.

THIS TYPE OF SPEAR IS FOUND IN BORNEO BUT I THINK IT IS MADE IN EITHER INDONESIA OR MALAYSIA OR IF MADE IN BORNEO IS NOT MADE BY DAYAKS. THERE ARE SEVERAL POSTS ON DAYAK SPEARS IN THE ARCHIVES HERE IS A LINK TO ONE POST.
