Can a cube be cut in 27 smaller cubes in less than 6 cuts?

Here's a question: what's the MOST number of cubes you can create with 6 cuts, allowing piece re-arrangement?

This is much more easier : 64

Oh yeah-- duh, 3 cuts with re-arrangement obviously allows for 1 cube to be cut into 8, hence 8^2. Now just still need the less-than-6 cuts proven...

Use a device that makes multiple slices with each cut...not sure if this qualifies.
