What type of saw blade do I need to cut cheap wood without splintering?

The cheap pine quarter-round is splintering when cut. Because one side is rounded, and the angles are crucial, I can't cut from the back. I'm using a compound miter saw. When I revert to cutting the laminate flooring or oak baseboard, the cuts are smooth. It must be the cheap pine... but buying all new quarter round is not an option (there's lots of it). I need extra blades anyway... what blade do I need get smooth cuts on cheap pine without splintering? Thanks!

if you get a scrap piece of wood and place it behind the quarter round's flat edge when cutting, it should stop the splintering. As far as the blade, for cross cutting (as you are doing) the more teeth the blade has the better. I use 80 tooth blades for my cross cutting and place a scrap back piece also. This should give you a clean cut if you slowly cut the wood and not try to CHOP through it.
