Can I reach forward with $50 in chips and drop them one at a time until I get to $35 or $40 and then say, "$2000" and reach back for the rest of my bet?
I'm just talking about holding $50 of chips in your hand when you reach forward, cutting out a few of those chips, and then saying "$2000"

OP explained that as long as it's in the "cutting chips" motion it's ok to announce and the verbal is binding. If you drop a chip/chips out of your hand and they hit the felt before you say anything, that chip/chips stand as the bet.
