OK Martik got to the core of the matter. Follow his advice.Cutting the
strips themselves should not require to much precision. You have had some
good advice on that. I do suggest that a saber saw would not be the best
tool as others have noted however.

What's the best sabre saw model to use for cutting narrow strips
about 2" in
width from full 8 foot sheets of laminate?

Use a carbide tipped tool to scribe thru the color coat, then snap
apart

or

Use a straight router bit

Are you using the strips for the edge of the countertop?

If so, you can trim the top edge with a router flush trim bit using
the countertop as a guide
