ABSTRACT:
A cutting tool1includes a hard coating formed on the surface of a substrate formed of, for example, a hard material of cemented carbide (WC-Co-type cemented carbide) equivalent to JIS K10 and polished into the shape of ISO SPGN120312. The cutting tool1has a plate-shape with a rake face (the main surface side) that is wider than the opposite face. The hard coating has a thickness in the range of from 1 μm to 5 μm, is formed of a TiAlN material, and has a Ti/Al ratio of 1. Coarse grains present in the hard coating and having a size not less than coating thickness occupy an area percentage not greater than 5% by area. The hard coating has a surface roughness Ra of not greater than 0.1 μm and a surface roughness Rz of not greater than 1 μm.
