In a radius end mill having a bottom edge formed on the end face thereof, a radius edge designed in a substantially quarter arc shape and formed at a corner portion thereof, and an outer peripheral edge formed spirally on the side surface thereof, the bottom edge and the radius edge being continuously connected to each other at a connecting point A while the radius edge is continuously connected to each other at a connecting point B, when a view taken along a plane that passes through the connecting points A and B and crosses a rake face of the radius edge is represented by an R cross-sectional view, the rake face of the radius edge is designed to have a convex curved line extending from the connecting point A to the connecting point B in the R cross-sectional view.
