Abstract
A cutting insert includes a top surface, a bottom surface, and a side surface extending between the top and bottom surfaces. The top surface is generally octagonal in shape and the side surface includes eight sides and eight corners. Four edge portions are formed at an intersection of the top and side surface. A first end of each edge portion begins along one of the eight sides at a non-zero distance from any of the eight corners and a second end of the edge portion ends along another one of the eight sides that is non-consecutive to the one of the sides. Each edge portion has a wedge angle that changes from a first angle at the first end of the edge portion to a different angle at the second end of the edge portion. A cutting tool using such an insert is also disclosed.
