Sorry I'm late, but scythes are... well unless your character is bad with them, they're not usually a thing we do. Qrow and Ruby are the only scythe wielders of their skill that Ozpin has seen in person, and that's assuming he's just talking about that life. A "secret" compartment for arrows really doesn't make sense with a bow.

1: you're already using a bow so if they can't see arrows  when you're fresh, your intelligent/sapient enemies will see that something is up.

2: The structural/engineering feasibility of having a hollow bow, for your arrows no less, is laughable, even in RWBY.

3: Unless your character is up to no good, which would not be helped by flashy AF weapons, there's no need to hide your weaponry in this setting. The 1 place where people walking around with weapons hasn't been ok has been in a Kingdom that is very much on edge, one where a curfew has been instated to keep order. Everywhere else, presumably more in the villages, is A-ok with people walking around with custom weapons. If you're hiding your armaments, it's not a good  sign here.

Finally, arrows of pure Dust are going to be far too expensive and volatile for most circumstances. Even tipping them with a Fire Dust crystal might hav ethe effective kill range of a frag grenade, but killing with fire and air pressure alone.
