A forceps includes an end effector assembly, a handle assembly, a first switch assembly, and a second switch assembly. The end effector includes first and second jaw members, at least one of the jaw members movable relative to the other between a spaced-apart position, a first approximated position and a second approximated position, at least one of the jaw members adapted to connect to a source of energy. The handle assembly includes a movable handle operably coupled to the end effector, and is movable between an initial stage, a first actuated stage, and a second actuated stage. The first switch assembly is activatable to supply a first energy to the end effector to seal tissue grasped, and the second switch assembly is activatable to supply a second energy to the end effector to cut tissue grasped.
