Don't forget... You can use a panel saw for wide, deep tenons.
Tenons mostly involve rip-cuts so a dovetail saw will do the job. I use a dovetail saw for sawing dovetails. Nothing else, but that's personal. A deeper tenon needs a normal tenon saw.

Yep, and I was one of those posters!! How things have changed. I traded in my LNs and am now the proud owner of apair of Wenzloff & Sons saws.
And just to depart from thinking at the time, one of them is an 18" backed tennon saw 4" deep !! Chris Schwartz gave that size a great review in his blog on WW.
The large size actually is easier to make consistent cuts and the weight helps the saw cut without downward pressure.
Hope you like whatever you got !!
