I am looking to kill some nasty weeds that keep popping up all over
one
of my paths (old fashioned block path). I remember a relative using
sodium chloride to sort his weeds out; is that still the recommended
course of action or are the new (expensive) pathclear type
weedkillers
to be favored instead?

I've just used boiling water with great results. Make a cuppa then
take a walk with the kettle. It takes a while to do a whole path but
it's cheap and effective.
