|French_fries_closeup.jpg|'''Shoestring fries''' are prepared from peeled or unpeeled potatoes that have been cut lengthways to form about ⅓ inch (0.8 cm) strips.  This is probably the most common cut within the United States.
|Shoestring fries.jpg|'''Petite-cut fries''', sometimes called '''shoestring fries''' or '''potato shoestrings''', are very thinly cut french fries, usually less than ¼ inch (0.6 cm) thick.  Most often served in higher-end restaurants, they are nearly always prepared from peeled potatoes to convey a very "clean" appearance.
|Steak fries.jpg|'''Steak fries,''' sometimes called '''ranch fries''', are thick, flat-cut french fries, about 1 inch (0.6 cm)  ½ inch (1.3 cm).  Prepared from either peeled or unpeeled potatoes, they are often the culinary choice to convey a particularly "hearty" appearance. These steak fries have been peppered with [[black pepper]].
|Curly_fries.jpg|'''Curly fries''' are prepared with a special cutting tool that is either motor-driven or hand-turned (see an example of [http://www.instawares.com/motorized-new-fry-slicer.gmp-5280m.0.7.htm#gallery motorized curly fry machine.])  The cutting implement is set into one end of the potato and the potato rotated, creating the spiral shapes as seen here.  Curly fries are typically lightly coated with a flour and spice mixture of [[salt]], [[paprika]], [[black pepper]], and other spices before frying, the result of which can be seen in this photo.
|Waffle_fries_Chik-Fil-A.jpg|'''Waffle fries'''.  Potatoes are cut crossways with a special tool to form the unique "waffle" shape, then prepared.  These waffle fries are made by [[Chik-fil-A]], a popular [[fast-food]] chain restaurant in the [[United States of America|United States]], who is sometimes cited as popularizing the cut.
|Crinkle cut french fries.jpg|'''Crinkle-cut fries.''' Potatoes, usually peeled, are cut with a special tool to form the "crinkle" shape, then prepared. They are typically about ½ inch (1.3 cm) by ½ inch (1.3 cm).  These crinkle-cut fries have have been purchased frozen from a grocery and fried at home.
|Wedge french fries.jpg|'''Wedge-cut fries''' are prepared from small, whole, unpeeled potatoes cut lengthways into quarters or sixths to form the wedges. As can be seen in this photo, the wedges need not be uniform.  Wedge-cut fries are often prepared through oven-fry methods to produce a dish lower in fat.
|Potato log fries.jpg|'''Potato log fries''' or simply '''potato logs''', are prepared from very large unpeeled or peeled potatoes, often pre-cooked, that are cut about 1 inch (2.5 cm) by 1 inch (2.5 cm) to form "logs".  A variant of potato logs is prepared similarly to wedge fries. Large, unpeeled, and often pre-cooked potatoes are are quartered or cut into sixths or eights lengthways to form the logs and prepared.  Potato logs are sometimes prepared through various baking methods.  Note the coin (U.S. quarter) in the photo for size comparison. This serving was probably made from just one extra large potato.
