Abstract
The invention describes a cutting tool, preferably a cutoff parting tool, having one or more replaceable cutting inserts. The cutting inserts comprises on the supporting and/or clamping surfaces embossed elements. Upon clamping the cutting inserts these elements cause a plastic deformation of the contact surfaces on the toolholder. In this fashion, the cutting inserts are additionally stabilized against lateral compressive forces and tensile forces forcing them out of the seat.
