Cutting tool and manufacturing method thereof
A cutting tool according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes a cutting edge portion which contains at least one of cubic boron nitride and polycrystalline diamond. The cutting edge portion includes a flank face, a negative land contiguous to the flank face, and a cutting edge formed by a ridgeline between the flank face and the negative land. At least one of the negative land and the flank face is provided with a plurality of recesses and a projection. The projection is formed by arranging the edges of adjacent recesses in contact with each other.
