Radial and cam axial relieved tools

Most tools are supplied with a cutter ground backoff, which is a series of angles to backoff the cutting edges and which limits the resharpening possibilities. Radial and Axial Cam Relieved tools are backed off eccentrically, giving the tool almost constant form and strength and many more resharpening possibilities.
