Default Cutting a pre-finished granite slab

Hi all,

I have searced Google and not found a sufficient discussion. I am
building an outdoor BBQ Island. I'd like to use a pre-finished granite
slab (bullnosed on 3 sides with a backsplash). I will need to make two
rectangular cutouts for the grill and the two burner unit. All cuts
will be straight and there are trim flanges that will overlap the
edges.

The total of all cuts is less than 12 feet and I was wondering if I
could use a hand held wet tile saw for the cuts? I plan to do the
cutting after the slab has been placed on the island to eliminate
handling after the cuts.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!
