Whiskey, Tango, Foxtrot | J. Sheehan's device would be a chisel here. Whether it has sweeps or points doesn't matter. Actually rarer to see points on a chisel here. Lot of ground gets chiseled in the fall, and the sweeps can help throw ridges up that will help some with wind erosion in the winter.
Here, at least, there are no 'field cultivators'. Everything light like that is a vibrashank. Doesn't matter if they are green, red or purple. I'd never really heard the term field cultivator except on this site. Granted, they don't get a whole lot of use here, usually just in front of grain if a guy has burned stubble and gassed. Disks are much more suited to our ground and rotations for finishing work.
Now go down to California and what we call a ripper, they call a finishing chisel. 30" deep with a chisel?

To qualify as ripper down there, I guess the shanks have to be measured in feet and they get pulled behind things on steel tracks.

How do you define "chisel plow"?
