nock it off with a 4 inch bolster and hammer
then use a 4 inch grinder with a diamond blade to run down the joints going in about 10-20mm
point up with a half round jointer or pointing trowel for weather struck
if you don't own a grinder,goggles and mask you can use a chasing chisel but will take a while
I'm not a brickie, but I wouldn't call that pointing, of any sort, i.e. it doesn't look as though it's the result of a process carried out on the joints after laying, it looks as if it's just the mortar which squeezed out from the joints during laying.There is a style of brick pointing used in the 70s called brick baveuse.

It's not uncommon in the USA. Can be a tricky joint to do for a bricklayer used to cutting off as they are laid.
