If you have *no* windows open (except perhaps the Downloads and/or Activity Windows), pressing Command-T will open a new, blank Window (without loading your home page). Command-T with a browsing window open creates a new, blank tab, of course. The difference between using Command-T and Command-N to open a new Safari window are:

NOTE: FWIW, you might wonder how this works when using virtual desktops? Inquiring minds may want to know, and if you don't know or care, the following can be ignored: I tried switching from a virtual desktop #1 (with Safari windows open), to virtual desktop #2 (with no Safari windows open), then pressed Cmd-T, but it opened a new tab in one of the existing windows on virtual desktop #1. I had to switch back to virtual desktop #1 to see my new tab. This was under DesktopManager. YMMV!
