A coating film has a lamination unit including a first layer and at least one of a second layer and a third layer. The first layer is a nitride or the like of a first material represented by (Cr.sub.1-a-b-cAl.sub.a[Ni.sub.1-dZr.sub.d].sub.bX.sub.c). X is at least one element selected from Ti, Nb, Si, B, W, and V. a, b, c, and d represent atomic concentrations. The second layer is a nitride or the like of the second material represented by (Al.sub.eCr.sub.1-e-fZ.sub.f). Z is at least one element selected from Si, Y, and B. e and f represent atomic concentrations. The third layer is a nitride or the like of the third material represented by (Al.sub.gCr.sub.1-g).
