Provided is a cemented carbide composition having a hard phase made of tungsten carbide (WC) as a first hard phase component and at least one second hard phase component selected from the group consisting of tantalum carbide (TaC), niobium carbide (NbC), and mixtures thereof, and a binder phase made of at least one binder component selected from the group consisting of cobalt (Co), nickel (Ni), and mixtures thereof. Also provided is a cemented carbide composition having a hard phase made of WC as a hard phase, NbC as an anti-galling phase, and TaC as a toughness improver, and a binder phase made of at least one binder component selected from the group consisting of Co, Ni, and mixtures thereof. Associated methods of producing the cemented carbide compositions and tools incorporating the same are additionally contemplated.
