ABSTRACT:
A cutting blank, preferably for use on a drill bit for cutting through earth formations, comprises a substrate formed of a hard material and including a cutting surface. A plurality of shallow grooves are formed in the cutting surface and each groove includes opposing side and base portions. Strips of a diamond substance are disposed in the grooves and are adhered to the side and base portions and include a cutting face exposed adjacent to the cutting surface of the substrate. The strips may be arranged in various patterns and may be in non-intersecting relationship, or intersecting relationship. The grooves may include undercut portions to more positively anchor the strips to the substrate. The cutting blank is preferably bonded to a stud, with the stud being mounted in a rotary drill bit.
