I'm no expert on plows but I can share what I've learned by hanging around on these boards for a
couple of years.
Disc plows were often used for breaking plows because they wont get hung up on rocks and roots
like a moldboard plow will. They'll roll up over the top if they can't cut through.
They're real heavy because they don't draw the plow down into the soil like a mb plow is designed
to do.
The disc is not unlike the disc on a disc harrow but much bigger in dia and about 4 times as thick
and heavy.
They can be quite expensive. I went to an auction where they were selling a Dearborn 2 disc plow
this spring.
The buyer paid $450 for it - way out of my league.
I talked to him afterwards and he was real happy because he'd seen another one go at auction for
$700 - way out of his league.
This pic is from the implement photos on this site. Note that there are TWO disc plows in the
picture not one.
