An abrasion resistant steel excellent in bending formability and suitable for members, e.g., power shovels, which come into contact with earth and sand, and a production method thereof are provided. Specifically, the steel contains, on a percent by mass basis, 0.05% to 0.35% of C, 0.05% to 1.0% of Si, 0.1% to 2.0% of Mn, 0.1% to 1.2% of Ti, 0.1% or less of Al, at least one element of 0.1% to 1.0% of Cu, 0.1% to 2.0% of Ni, 0.1% to 1.0% of Cr, 0.05% to 1.0% of Mo, 0.05% to 1.0% of W, and 0.0003% to 0.0030% of B, if necessary at least one element of 0.005% to 1.0% of Nb and 0.005% to 1.0% of V, and the remainder including Fe and incidental impurities, where DI* represented by the following formula is less than 60: DI*=33.85×(0.1×C*)0.5×(0.7×Si+1)×(3.33×Mn+1)×(0.35×Cu+1)×(0.36×Ni+1)×(2.16×Cr+1)×(3×Mo*+1)×(1.5×W*+1) (1) where C*=C−1/4×(Ti−48/14N), Mo*=Mo×(1−0.5×(Ti−48/14N)), and W*=W×(1−0.5×(Ti−48/14N)).
