My dad used to have these iron chisels, about 3" in diameter at the top,

anyone have any idea of where I could find some of these today?

I just have
some logs to split up also. Help anyone?

Would either of these be useful?

You can probably find less fancy versions of the splitting wedge at
local stores.
