There's a vertical split in the top of the nail on my pointing finger.

Treat this similar to a propagating crack, drill a small hole at the
leading edge.


I had thought of running a file across so that it makes an extra
flexible area (stopping before going right through....!).

No, not a rasp or *******. Dead smooth, or nail!


Speaking from experience - don't do that! You could wind up with not
just a split, but your nail could delaminate.


It wasn't laminated to start with was it?
