A fluid passage device including a passage for flowing high-pressure fluid of a predetermined or higher pressure comprises a sac bore cylinder of a metal, which includes therein a closed passage and a branch passage. The closed passage is shaped to extend straightly in a predetermined direction and has a closed top end, and the branch passage is branched off from the closed passage. A top end part of the closed passage at a closed side is defined by a ceiling wall surface, which is perpendicular to the predetermined direction, a passage wall surface, which is parallel to the predetermined direction, and a connecting wall surface, which connects the ceiling wall surface and the passage wall surface. The connecting wall surface is shaped to curve in a direction to expand the closed passage.

A cutting tool comprising a base material and a coating, wherein the coating comprises a hard particle layer, the hard particle comprises a multilayer structure in which a first unit layer formed from a first compound and a second unit layer from a second compound are alternately stacked, each of the first compound and the second compound consists of one or more metal elements selected from the group consisting of a periodic table group 4 element, a periodic table group 5 element, and a periodic table group 6 element, silicon, and one or more elements selected from the group consisting of carbon, nitrogen, boron, and oxygen, and a percentage of the number of atoms of the silicon to a sum of the numbers of atoms of the metal element and the silicon in the first unit layer is different from that in the second unit layer.
