Since I took the time to actually learn how to sharpen my hand saws properly, I prefer to use them rather than a powered tool. If I was doing it for a living, I might think differently, but for the hobby work I do, I get along fine. Thanks for the feedback.

I still contend that a high percentage of accidents from major power tools result from our (woodworkers) propensity to insist on using the power tool for every tiny little cut or smoothing operation when a hand tool will do the job and often with less time and effort.
These days I find myself reaching for a hand tool more and more. Not only do I prefer the more quiet sounds of the hand tool but I also don't have to listen to a noisy dust collector.
Don't get me wrong, I'm still a power tool nut but I no longer look at every job as a power tool job. I am also not about to spend a hour building some jig to hold a small piece safely on the power tool when I can safely make the cut by hand in 2 or 3 minutes.
