A surgical dissection tool for cutting bone and other tissue includes a cutting head having an outer surface having non paired or an odd number of flutes formed therein. Each flute includes a rake surface intersecting with the outer surface to form a cutting edge and a relief surface opposite the rake surface. The relief surface and the rake surface form a first angle. Each flute also includes a leading angled surface extending from the relief surface to a distal end portion of the cutting head the leading angled surface and the rake surface forming a second angle substantially the same as the first angle.
