The present invention relates to a method and a carrier body for coating cutting tools for chip removal. The carrier body is adapted to be used during coating of cutting tool inserts in a CVD and/or a MTCVD method. The carrier body is at least partially comprised of a material selected from the MAX phase family, i.e. Mn+ 1AXn (n=1,2,3) wherein M is one or more metals selected from the groups IIIB, IVB, VB, VIB and VIII of the periodic table of elements and/or their mixture, A is one or more metals selected from the groups IIIA, IVA, VA and VIA of the periodic table of elements and/or their mixture, and wherein X is carbon and/or nitrogen.
