Yup. Those are grub hoes; and a nice selection of them, too. I've got a couple, and they are available a number of places. They're great for an entirely out of control situation, and/or an occasional spectacularly stubborn weed (a young tree or old grapevine, for instance, that managed to survive preliminary tillage). You can take a good hard swing with lots of muscle behind it and not break them. But they're not what I want for small to moderate sized annual weeds in a series of long rows; they'd probably move a lot more soil than necessary (thereby bringing up more weed seed into the germination zone); and they'd certainly wear me out a lot faster, as they're a much heavier tool used as a chopper.
