Thanks for your reply. Since I wrote this I've started working on a previous version of my object which does slice and mirror as it should. (I'm working on an aircraft model and my procedure is to work on the right half of the model and then mirror it to get both sides. The part that caused problems had been made into a full model some time ago but I decided to rework it and wanted to cut away the left half of it).

Anyway, provided the problem is due to strangely positioned vertices it didn't help to move the knife in this case. I even tried to delete all of the surfaces that the knife would have to cut through and the object still wouldn't slice. Evidently, there's something going on that's unrelated to the position of the knife in relation to surfaces being cut.

As always, a rich selection of backup versions will save the day :-)
