Bypass: designed for cutting of live/green wood. A curved cutting platform holds the branch. The action of the blade is a slicing motion in that it goes down to the side of the cutting platform.

Anvil: designed for cutting of old/hard wood. A flat cutting platform at right angles supports the branch. The action of the blade is a chopping motion in that it comes down on to and meets the cutting platform.

Compound Action: The tool mechanism multiplies effort through a gearing or pivot system. Good for mobility issues.

Ratchet: Consists of a bar with a set of angled teeth in which a tooth engages, allowing blade motion in one direction only with a series of movements used rather than a single cut. Good for mobility issues
