Cutting tool

A cutting tool includes a supporting body and a cBN or PCD cutting edge tip attached to the supporting body via a 5-150 m braze joint. The supporting body is cemented carbide having 3-25 wt % of a metallic binder, optionally up to 25 wt % of carbides or carbonitrides of one or more elements of group 4, 5, or 6, and the rest WC. The metallic binder includes at least 40 wt % Ni, and the braze joint has, in the order from the supporting body, a first layer of TiC situated next thereto, with an average thickness of 10-400 nm, a second layer, with an average thickness of 0.5-8 m, having in average at least 5 wt % metallic Ni, in average 25-60 wt % metallic Cu and in average 15-45 wt % metallic Ti, and a third layer, with an average thickness of 4-145 m, having metallic Ag and metallic Cu.
