To provide a shaft-like rotary cutting tool where the rigidity and wear resistance of a point tip are improved, chipping hardly occurs, and a tool service life can be improved by repolishing.

In rotary cutting tool, a point formed of a composite material having a sintered super abrasive grain layer sintered and integrated on a substrate of a hard metal under extra-high pressure/high temperature is brazed to a shank. A prescribed range from the tip in the shaft length direction of a tip, particularly 2.0-7.0 mm is solely configured by a single body of sintered super abrasive grains.
