Yep, but Greenneck is offering this as his reference image.

It does if you sharpen it. Most wood axes aren't terribly sharp either.

A well-maintained wood axe is much sharper than a mattock

A whetstone is no where enough to sharpen a mattock. You'd need a grinding stone. When you are finished you'd be able to do cutting damage but it would only serve as a digging tool once. After that the edge will be severely damaged.
