PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a surface coated cutting tool having a hard coated layer exhibiting excellent chipping resistance in high speed cutting for hard to cut material. SOLUTION: In this surface coated cutting tool, a hard coated layer including the followings is formed on the surface of cemented carbide base or on the surface of high speed tool steel base by vapor deposition: (a) an upper layer and a lower layer, which are both formed of (Cr, Al, V)N, the upper layer has an average layer thickness of 0.5 to 1.5μm and the lower layer has an average layer thickness of 2 to 6μm;(b) the upper layer has an alternately stacked layer structure of a thin layer A and a thin layer B, both of which have an average layer thickness per layer ranging from 5 to 20 nm, the thin layer A is (Cr, Al, V)N layer satisfying the formula: [Cr<SB>1-(E+F)</SB>Al<SB>E</SB>V<SB>F</SB>]N, the thin layer B is (Cr, Al, V)N layer satisfying the formula: [Cr<SB>1-(M+N)</SB>Al<SB>M</SB>V<SB>N</SB>]N; and (c) the lower layer is formed of (Cr, Al, V) N layer having a single phase structure and satisfying the formula [Cr<SB>1-(X+Y)</SB>Al<SB>X</SB>V<SB>Y</SB>]N.
