Coated cemented carbides used for cutting tool and having improved resistance to chipping without sacrificing resistance to wear. They comprise a substrate comprising WC, at least one iron-family metal forming a binder phase and a hard phase in which a hard phase comprising at least one element selected from the group consisting of carbides, nitrides and carbonitrides of metal containing Zr and/or Hf as a main component coexists with a hard phase comprising at least one element selected from the group consisting of carbides, nitrides and carbonitrides of metal containing Ti as a main component, and at least one coating layer formed on said substrate, said coating layer comprising at least one element selected from the group consisting of a carbide, nitride, oxide and boride of a metal that belongs to the IVa, Va and VIs groups and aluminum oxide.
