A tip of the at least one airfoil is metal having a wear resistant coating and the at least one seal member is coated with an abradable coating. The wear resistant coating is formed as a layer in a base metal surface of the airfoil, has a thickness less than or equal to 10 mils (254 micrometers) and includes metal boride compounds.
