I have several in my yard I use to block up my boats. These appear to be fairly new. Not sure when they were first manufactured. I believe they are used as the first row off the footing. Mine are also concrete not cinder.

Very modern, it appears to be a three core 8" X 16" X 8" cement block.
They also make a two core block, which is a bit lighter.
More webs between the outsides makes it stronger.

I'm not sure but you need to invest in a better digging tool.
