Tool to cut a 215 x 120 wide socket in a 100mm block wall.

The blocks in question are genuine medium blocks at about 15kg per block and not the 8kg fibolites I have used elsewhere in my build.

 

My question originates from a need to tie (bond) one block wall into another at 90 degrees. One wall is already 9 blocks high and I will tie in every other course hence I will need to cut 4 or 5 of these sockets. I have a mortar gun that I will use to fill around the sides as each block is inserted into the socket.

 

Would a masonry blade fitted to a multi-tool do the job?

I would just use a couple of furfix / wall starters spaced 60mm apart for that bit.  5 minutes work.

 

Do this - a wall starter would be much easier.
