Yes but that can be confusing as well as the soft solder most use says "lead free silver solder".
If it's a long hard stick then it's hard solder.
If it's a soft coil of solder then it's soft solder.
It is quite confusing ~x(

Im no coppersmith but from my knowledge I think it would be quite hard to soft solder anything small with oxy, there is too much heat.
Oxy = Hard Solder
Butane torch = Soft solder
MAPP Torch = Hard solder of small items and soft solder of larger
That's the way I see it anyway :-B
