Claim Text:
1. A metal-cutting tool comprising: a tool holder; an adjusting element; and an adjusting screw, the adjusting element having adjusting element threads, the adjusting screw having adjusting screw threads, an actuation region, and a projection that extends farther from a longitudinal axis of the adjusting screw than the adjusting screw threads extend from the longitudinal axis of the adjusting screw, the adjusting screw threads on an outer surface of the adjusting screw, helical relative to the longitudinal axis of the adjusting screw, the actuation region located at a first end of the adjusting screw, the projection located at a second end of the adjusting screw, the projection axially spaced from the actuation region relative to the longitudinal axis of the adjusting screw, the adjusting screw threads threaded with the adjusting element threads, whereby rotating the adjusting screw about the longitudinal axis causes the adjusting element to move due to the threading of the adjusting element threads with the adjusting screw threads, while the adjusting screw does not move axially along the longitudinal axis.
