I have some K & S "shim brass" sheets. The kind you get from a hobby
shop.

I need to cut it into thin strips and don't think that a paper cutter,
snips, heavy duty kitchen shears, or a nibbler would be suitable for
making strips that will need to be either 1/8th or 1/4th of an inch
wide.

Since the thickness of these wheet will range from .015 to .032, Is it
plausible to score the metal with a Stanley knife or something
simular, and break it apart by hand?

If so, any recommendations on the best knife for this purpose would be
appreciated.

Thanks a lot.
