A machining tool of the present invention is used for finishing an end face having an arcuate cross section on a machined portion of a workpiece. A machining tool 30 has a tool body 31 and a cutting portion 32 provided integrally on a tip of the tool body 31. The cutting portion 32 is formed in substantially semispherical shape, and has a substantially spherical flank 33 and a substantially flat rake 35 joined to the flank 33 via an arcuate cutting edge 34. In the state that the cutting edge 34 abuts the arcuate end face of the rotated workpiece, the arcuate end face is finished using the machining tool 30 by varying the position of the cutting edge 34 abutting the arcuate end face in a circumferential direction.
