Etymology
Metal-cutting is simply made of metal and cutting, so it literally means 'cutting metal'. The part metal comes from an old word meaning 'mine', which helps you think of hard materials from the earth, and cutting shows the tool's job, so metal-cutting means a tool or machine made to cut metal.
