Going into this, I wasn’t expecting miracles from the 9Cr18 steel, but sometimes these budget blades can surprise you. I came away pretty impressed with how it held up.

Plague Doctor Replica Cut Test: Is This D2 Cryo 60+ HRC For Real?
Time to put the “shockingly good” Spartan Harsey Plague Doctor replica through our Redneck Cut Tests. This beautiful titanium knife from AliExpress comes with some bold claims - D2 steel that's been cryogenically treated with an HRC rating of 60+. That's some serious performance talk for a replica knife.
After being blown away by the fit and finish on this pandemic memorial piece, I was curious to see if the blade performance could match the impressive looks. Would the D2 steel back up those specs, or would it be all show and no go? I put it through the full battery of tests on cardboard, rope, hose, and wood. Let's just say this knife continues to surprise me in ways I didn't expect. Watch to see if this beautiful blade can cut as well as it looks.
