A broach tool comprises a very stiff backing member and has an arbor adapted to be received into the hollow spindle of a machine tool, for example a multi-axis, computer controlled machining center. The backing member carries a plurality of cutting points disposed to perform successive cutting operations as the broach tool is pushed through a workpiece by relative movement of a worktable and the machine spindle. The broach tool is formed with externally extending passageways to supply coolant to the cutting points. The coolant may be supplied through the machine spindle.
