Disclosed is a sintered gear composed of a sintered alloy having a metal matrix and pores. The tooth surface ( 2, 3, 4 ) of the tooth and the bottom land ( 5 ) have a densified layer ( 11 ) in which the porosity is reduced to 10% or less from the sintered alloy. The densified layer at the tooth surface is formed with a thickness of 300 to 1,000 microns, and the densified layer at the bottom land is formed with a thickness of 10 to 300 microns. The boundary surface of the densified layer is continuous from the tooth surface side to the bottom land side so as not to have a substantial level difference.
