Thanks guys----- Project done!!
I borrowed a pair of Wiss shears from a friend. They look like a small pair of regular sheet metal shears but they are intended for hvy. cloth, rubber, etc. as well as light metal cutting. They have tiny serrations on the cutting edges. I think this is why they worked for the Kevlar.
