Coping saws are a little bigger and more solidly built than fret saws and normally use a saw blade with transverse locking pins in the ends. The blade is not simply clamped in place, as with a lighter fret saw: rather the pins are inserted into sockets in the frame and then the blade is tensioned. This allows for a much higher tension in a more solid frame and so works better in heavier materials.
The types of work you can use the coping saw for is similar to that of the fret or scroll saw, except that as the curves get tighter, the scroll saw becomes harder to use. The choice of saw blades is also limited compared to what is available for fret saws. When you need to work quickly, or the forms you need to cut are relatively large and simple, the scroll saw works the best.
