Disclosed is a soft magnetic alloy having a composition expressed by the formula FexMzCw, wherein M represents at least one element from the group consisting of Ti, Zr, Hf, Nb, Ta, Mo and W; and x, z and w represent ratios of the respective elements in terms of atom % and satisfy -50 </= x </= 96, -2 </= z </= 30, -0.5 </= w </= 25, -x + z + w = 100. - The alloy is comprised of crystalline particles with an average grain size of 0.08 mu m or less and contains crystalline carbides of element M. A magnetic head comprising such a soft magnetic alloy film has excellent saturated flux density, is resistant to wear, and has excellent recording and reproduction properties.
