handheld saws have two main types; the coping saw and the tenon saw. The coping saw has a thin blade allowing for intricate curves whereas the tennon has a very thick blade so is good for straight edges.
In terms of electrical saws there is the scroll saw; another one that has a thin blade which is pused up and down in quick succesion to create a cutting arm.
