Abstract
A rotary cutting tool, having a longitudinal axis, includes a forward cutting portion and a rearward shank portion. The cutting portion includes a peripheral surface that has a plurality of flutes recessed therein. The plurality of flutes extend helically along the longitudinal axis and form a plurality of cutting teeth. Each cutting tooth includes a cutting edge at a rotationally leading edge thereof and a chip-splitting arrangement located at the cutting edge. Each chip-splitting arrangement includes two grooves. The two grooves interrupt the cutting edge and diverge, relative to each other, therefrom in the peripheral surface on opposite sides of an associated plane that is oriented perpendicularly to the longitudinal axis.
