<p>The present application presents a cutter element fabricated from a material harder than the surface to be cut having a fluted cube that continuously presents an acute angle to the cutter edge thereby prolonging the wear of the cutter as the cutter element wears. Six-sides of the cutter element can provide four, five or six fluted sides and the flutes can be parallel on opposing sides or could provide perpendicular flutes on each of the four, five or six sides. In an alternative embodiment, two of the six sides of the cube can be concave thereby providing a chip breaker indentation in the cube to remove cuttings from the surface being scrapped or cut.</p>
