The way the barbs have been attached to the shaft is a bit similar to those on this fighting spear from the Solomon Islands (Melanesia)...

YOU DID A GOOD JOB ON THE ONE SPEAR NOW YOU NEED TO RESTORE THE OTHER ONE THE BARBS SHOULD BE NO PROBLEM BUT BINDING THE DECORATIVE FIBER WILL TAKE A BIT MORE SKILL OR JUST APPLY A BIT OF STAIN TO THE AREA.
