Chinese Polearms and Spades

Now, I don't know how much these relate to Kung-Fu, but can anyone help me recognize the long handled-wavy bladed sword kind of a weapon, and the spears with two squiggly bits to the sides. What are they called?
Also, I had understood that the monk's spade was the two-headed polearm with a crescent and a shovel, though I've never seen a antique one. I found online an antique chinese spear/polearm head named a monk's spade, which is crescent in shape. Were blades like that affixed to staves for use? Are this type of blades still called monk's spades?

Edit: I've also heard of some sort of shaolin rakes, but haven't seen anything that would look anykind of sensible. Anyone know about these?

That one isn't labeled.

Dictionary gives: 鏜 tāng, táng; boring tool

That's a combination of two weapons/tools;

月牙铲 yuèyáchǎn (crescent moon shovel/spade), and;

方便铲 fāngbiànchǎn (convenience shovel/spade).

When combined into one, it usually takes the name of the latter, being the main head.

"Monk's spade" is an English term, far as I know.

I'unno.

For more on spades, read our May+June 2012 cover story: The Spade, the Whip and the Mountain Gate. I've not heard "Shaolin Rake" but that might also be derivative of Journey to the West as Pigsy wielded a rake.
