The rules really did not change. Someone just finally decided to punch test
linen, and it worked! From what I have been told, you must use real linen
or linen cotton blend. Linen-look, and Linen-ployester blends will not pass
the punch test. My advice: Get a swatch of material big enough to punch
test with a broken blade, before you spend a lot of money.
