Huquavarna and stihl do a cracking wall saw which for the price of those blades you could hire 1 for the weekend and do the job properly and quickly with dust suppression aswell. Those recip saws are only good for light materials they come unstuck pretty quickly in heavy stuff.

grind your 2 " slots andy ,then use a 7mm masonry drill to stitch drill the rest,we do this all the time when working in peoples house==> very little dust
i normally do the holes about 10 mm apart then once they are all drilled i do diagonal holes
its very effective
also got 1 of these
but it is slow compared to drilling

Like the arbortech myself but agree much slower than stitching. prefer that to using my core drill, although the finish with the core drill isfar superior:)
