Abstract

See full text

A cutting element for an earth-boring tool includes a substrate and a volume of superabrasive material disposed on a substrate. The volume of superabrasive material has an exposed outer surface with a non-planar geometry. The cutting element is configured to be located and oriented on an earth-boring tool so as to remove subterranean earth formation material by compressing and fracturing or plastically deforming the formation material with at least a portion of the exposed outer surface of the volume of superabrasive material during use of the earth-boring tool in an earth-boring operation. The exposed outer surface of the volume of superabrasive material includes a first area having a first average surface finish roughness and a second area having a second average surface finish roughness greater than the first average surface finish roughness. Earth-boring tools carrying such cutting elements and methods of forming such earth-boring tools are also disclosed.
