| Description: |  | The invention is a cutter insert made by electric discharge machining, which produces a cutting edge that is smooth and flat and devoid of cracks or scratches that can be the starting point of a fracture in the edge. In addition, the exact method of production is intended to provide precisely parallel surfaces to minimize the risk of fractures when the insert is clamped into a holder. |  |
