The instrument resembles a heavy-duty, plier-style cutter with elongated handles and sharp, chisel-like blades. The blades feature a concave or beveled edge specifically designed to concentrate cutting force and prevent the bone from splintering.

- Double-Action Mechanism: This compound joint system multiplies the leverage exerted by the surgeon. It dramatically reduces the physical force and hand strain required to cut through dense cortical bone compared to single-action instruments.
- Spring Handle: Usually equipped with a double spring mechanism, it automatically opens the jaws after each squeeze. This allows for smooth, one-handed operation, consistent pacing, and drastically reduced hand fatigue during long surgeries.
- Blade Variations: Available in both straight and angled/curved jaw configurations. Straight jaws offer direct access for surface cutting, while angled variants provide better maneuverability in confined anatomical spaces and deeper surgical sites.
