The first radiused edge, having a larger radius, being located adjacent to the main cutting edge and a second radiused edge, having a smaller radius, being located adjacent to the secondary cutting edge. Furthermore, the secondary cutting edge includes a radiused edge having a larger radius than the two aforementioned corner radiused edges and the recess includes a rear plane being so arranged that the chips hit a rear plane of the upper surface and break against the rear plane.
