A good basic collection of saws would consist of a crosscut or general-purpose saw, for cutting across the grain of wood (don’t buy the disposable “hard point” type because these saws are mainly for site work and cannot be sharpened), backsaw a.k.a. tenon saw (the better models of these have a brass back), coping saw for cutting curves, and a hacksaw for cutting metal.

Good additions to your kit would be a frame miter saw for angled cuts and, for fine work, a dovetail saw (a smaller version of a backsaw). Buy a miter saw that can cut compound miters—the additional expense is well worth it: one will pay for itself in terms of time saved and frustration avoided.

You might also want to try a pull saw. This, as its name suggests, cuts on the pull stroke. It is easy to use and leaves a fine finish.
