A method for checking a tool uses a device with a light emitter for beam emission for tool scanning and with a beam receiver for beam reception and for outputting a shadow signal; and an evaluation unit for processing the shadow signal; rotation of the tool; moving the tool until it reaches a starting position in which the blade dips into the beam and shades this such that a threshold of a range of the evaluation unit is reached or undershot; moving the tool, starting from the starting position, out of the beam and registering the shadow signal; ascertaining that the shadow signal for a cutting edge does not fall below the lower switching threshold or exceed the upper switching threshold such that a shadow signal lies above the lower and below the upper switching threshold; wherein the feed is determined in proportion to a measurement range.
