Question External Miters

Hello All,
I have just been given the contract for 6 flats in my local area by an established builders firm. The tiling required is walls and floors for bathrooms and kitchens, using mostly large porcelain tiles.

My question is that the builders want all external miters put in without trim, and having to cut the tiles at a 45 degree angle.
Because of this and being completly inexperianced with these i negotiated for day rate untill i gathered speed.

Questions

What saw would you recommend?

Is this a black art?

How do you avoid sharp edges?

should i be doing this all the time anyway as it did look bloody good?

am i punching above my weight?

I start in 2 weeks. thank you
