In order to reduce the blade costs, the same type of indexable cutting insert () is provided in the different blade receptacles. Besides this, the active main cutting edges () of the indexable cutting inserts are subdivided along their length into at least two blade segments () in alignment with each other, wherein for the indexable cutting inserts in the various blade receptacles () respectively only one of the cutting segments () is effective with the associated adjustment (&#x3b1;, &#x3b1;&#x2032;, &#x3b1;&#x2033;).
