It can be split only once into equal halves. Any further splits would result in pieces that are smaller than halves.
Halves are equal by definition. So halves can never be unequal.

I don't think you can have an unequal half!
In theory it could be done an infinite number of times, but in reality it would depend on the material from which the cubes were made
