A brake disk includes a basic material formed of gray cast iron, a decarburized layer formed on the basic material and formed via decarburizing, and a nitride compound layer formed on the decarburized layer and formed via nitriding of a nitride. A method of manufacturing a brake disk includes preparing a disk formed of gray cast iron, performing heat treatment of the disk to form a pre-decarburized layer and a base layer of gray cast iron over which the pre-decarburized layer is formed, and nitriding a portion of the pre-decarburized layer to form a nitride compound layer including a nitride and a decarburized layer over which the nitride compound layer is formed.
