Though, to be fair the mattocks in-game are pretty misrepresented. They would be far more accurate as a shovel-pick cross than an axe-pick.

Ithilion, Discussions Moderator (Auta i lómë) OK. I don't know what a mattock actually is, so I will take your word for it! :) weapons used by dwarves in the hobbit. It is essentially a pickaxe on one side with a flat blade on the other side to act as both extra weight, and as an axe or shovel depending on how it is shaped. honestly just think of a double-sided pick except rather than the vestigial second pick-blade it has a wider flatter blade that could be for a variety of things, such as when I searched for the dwarven version, a block of steel with small points to pulverize rather than pierce enemies.

Well, as this states in way too many words, a mattock is a multi-purpose tool in which a pick-axes counterweight is replaced by something to double as a seperate kind of tool that does not get in the way of mining, nor should the pick get in the way of its use (hence, no sword blade or anything else protruding more than a few inches up)
