My elderly aunt uses ratchet ones, I think it's these http://www.amazon.co.uk/Draper-34478-Anvil-Pattern-Ratchet-Action-Secateurs/dp/B00023T8YE/ref=pd_cp_lp_2

I got them for her 2 xmas's ago and last year she called to sat how comfy and easy to use they were. She has arthritis in her hands.

My dad bought me the black & decker electric ones They are cordeless so don't, get in the way. not cheap, but work really well. I have MS and my hands don't work that well either.
