Cutting Tools is a set of four tools (Hatchet, Saber Saw, Table Saw and Vector Vac) for cutting and cleaning up paths in Adobe Illustrator.

Hatchet tool: Click to use like the Scissors tool, except that it will cut through all paths at that point, not just the top path. This makes it perfect for cutting two lines where they cross. Hold down the Option key to cut through only selected paths.

Saber Saw tool: Drag the tool to draw a free-form line. When you release the mouse button, the Saber Saw will do a fence cut through all paths that cross the one you drew.

Table Saw tool: Click and drag to create a straight line. When you release the mouse button, the Saber Saw will do a fence cut through all paths that cross the one you drew.

Vector Vac tool: Either click on paths or drag through them to delete them.After cutting, you may drag the tool over the unwanted paths to delete them. 

The tools are added to the same set as the Scissors tool. Its recommended that you drag the scissors tool group out of the toolbox so theyre all quickly available in their own floating palette.
