Abstract: A turning tool for turning wooden workpieces, comprising a turning disk fixedly mounted on a drive shaft and including a plurality of carbide cutting teeth separated from one another by respective tooth spaces, said cutting teeth being in the form of at least two different configurations, one such configuration comprising peripherally disposed profile cutters having peripheral, end, and lateral cutting edges, while the other configuration comprises chip cutters formed with peripheral and end cutting edges, said chip cutters being associated with said profile cutters in a radially inwards and, in the feed direction, axially forwards offset position. Each profile cutter is integrally formed with its associated chip cutter in the form of an integral metal carbide cutting tooth having a common flat front surface forming at least part of the rear wall of the tooth space preceding it in the direction of rotation, the tooth space being open-ended at both sides and extending over the full width of said turning disk.
