I have one but have never tried it for cutting kydex. The scroll saw blade needs free space under the cut and this would have to be considered when trying to hold a relatively small work piece and the saw all in the correct place while running.

Other than that, I'm pretty sure I could make it work with the right blade and if it was the only saw I had, it would be cutting kydex for sure.
