They're hidden, and usually out of reach. When you shoot them they shatter but what does it get you? Any sort of bonus or is just for an achievement?
You can get Sheeva's tribal costume collecting all 30 of them
See here for their location
Grabbing all 30 gets you that lovely getup, plus something special for Chris and a number of other trinkets

How can I make many points quickly to spend them for extras?
Is there a particular kind of gameplay that brings many points? I have played the whole story on the easiest mode so far (just finished 5 minutes ago), but now I need many points to buy all the nice stuff...
The best way to get points in Re5 is to play a chapter and play it well. I would find a nice section to grind in and get it down so you know it like the back of your hand, and then speed through it, the idea is to get as many kills as possible (while maintaining a high accuracy) while completing the chapter in the shortest amount of time possible. Obviously dying is not an option. After youve finished the chapter, save and quit, and redo it again.
Note that the LENGTH of the chapter is irrelavent, its your rank at the end that matters, so pick one of the shorter ones so you can grind it faster.
You can also get points from playing mercenaries, getting a high rank in a merc level grants good points as well, however depending on your own personal abilities the first solution might be your better choice as merc can be difficult at times.

I'm not sure I understand how to get into hand to hand combat in RE5. It seems that I occasionally get a hint to press F and make hooks, but other than that and the machete, I don't see a way to just punch or kick an enemy.
Am I missing something here?
As Shinrai said, it's all context sensitive, but be aware that if you do manage to punch someone, your partner can perform a second hit for more damage, and then you can hit them one last time for a lot more damage. Bouncing them back and forth can be quite fun. Zombie Pong!
