An abrasion-resistant steel having excellent surface property consists essentially of 0.1 to 0.45 wt. % C, 0.1 to 1 wt. % Si, 0.1 to 2 wt. % Mn, 0.04 wt. % or less P, 0.04 wt. % or less S, 0.1 to 1 wt. % Ti, 0.0015 to 0.01 wt. % N, and the balance being Fe and inevitable impurities, the steel including at least 400 TiC precipitates of 0.5 mu m or more in particle size per 1 mm2 and the steel having Ti* of 0.05 wt. % or more and less than 0.4 wt. % the Ti* being defined by the equations of Ti*=Ti(a)-[Ti], Ti(a)=Ti-{(48/14)N+(48/32)S}, log[Ti][C]=(-10580/T)+4.38, [Ti]=4x[C]+{Ti(a) -4xC}. A method for producing an abrasion-resistant steel having excellent surface property comprising the steps of: preparing a molten steel having the composition specified above; casting continuously the molten steel to produce slab, coarse particles of TiC being precipitated in the slab; hot-working the slab to produce a hot-rolled steel sheet at 1300 DEG C. or less; and quenching the hot-rolled steel sheet.
