A method for making a cutter element, the method including combining a plurality of super-hard grains, a powder source of bond material for bonding the super-hard grains in the cutter element, and a fluid medium to form a paste, in which the content of the super-hard grains is sufficient for the content of the super-hard grains in the cutter element to be at least about 3 volume percent. The paste is introduced into an extrusion device and extruded to form a green body, which is sintered to provide the cutter element. In some examples, the cutter element may be for a saw blade or drill bit. |
