Abstract: A drill having a cutting edge that is less prone to chipping or fracturing when used in drilling operations, and that can be sharpened or resharpened uniformly and consistently from drill to drill by machine grinding. The drill comprises a body and at least one flute formed in the body that terminates in a cutting edge at the cutting end of the drill. The flute has a cutting surface, the cutting surface having formed therein a dub face having a substantially planar surface over at least a portion thereof that is proximate to the cutting edge. The cutting edge has formed therein a cutting land having a substantially planar surface over at least a portion thereof connected at an edge to the planar surface portion of the dub face.
