Abstract: A grinding tool of the present invention is configured by having grinding surface that comes into direct contact with the surface of the object to be ground. Multiple small protuberances which include diamonds and other abrasive materials are formed on the grinding surface. Surface area of the small protuberances and the distance between the small protuberances are set such that the grinding resistance was maintained at an approximate constant value after a substantially constant grinding resistance value was reached.
