Abstract: A cermet insert includes a first surface, a second surface, a cutting edge, a third surface located opposite to the first surface, and a through hole extending from the first surface to the third surface. An inner wall constituting the through hole has, at least in a center portion, a binder-phase-rich layer having a higher binder phase content than an interior of the base. A thickness T1 of the binder-phase-rich layer at the center portion is larger than a thickness T2 of the binder-phase-rich layer at an end portion. The thickness T1 is 1 ?m or more and 20 ?m or less, the thickness T2 is 0.2 ?m or more and 6 ?m or less. The first surface includes a chip breaker. An arithmetic mean roughness Ra of the chip breaker is 0.05 ?m or less when a cut-off value is 0.08 mm.

Abstract: A cutting insert may include a base member. The base member may include a first surface, a second surface adjacent to the first surface, and a first cutting edge located in at least a part of a first ridge line which the first surface intersects with the second surface. The base member may include a hard phase containing a titanium carbonitride, and a binding phase containing at least one of cobalt and nickel. The hard phase may include a first hard phase observed on a higher angle side, and a second hard phase observed on a lower angle side in a comparison of (422) plane peak in an X-ray diffraction analysis. A compressive residual stress of the second hard phase in the second surface may be less than a compressive residual stress of the second hard phase in the first surface.
