The Koh-i-noor has been cut several times of the course of its documented history, which is about 500 years. You can read its history, below.
During that period, advances in diamond cutting tools evolved.
It is not possible to discover the exact cuts and tools used to re-shape the Koh-i-noor over its several stages. We do know that Prince Albert commissioned its latest shape and at great expense. Who planned and executed the work and using which tools has not been made public.

What are inserts in machining?
Tool inserts can be made of industry grade diamond, and various other ceramics such as tungsten carbide - which is most common. Tungsten tips are made by pressing the powered material into the tool tip shape (usually a diamond/kite shape for turning tools, triangles for milling) and then heated so the particles bond to each other. These tips can be fixed to the tool body and then used to machine, on a lathe or mill. The advantage of tip tooling is if the tip breaks only the tip needs replacing not the whole tool, or having to grind the worn tool. However tungsten will not tolerate intermittent cuts as well as HSS, such as taking the corners off a square bar in a lathe.
