The transition through the cladding reveals the layered construction clearly, with the wrought iron and nickel taking on a hazy, lightly etched finish that gives the blade considerable depth without obscuring its forged character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe semi-integral construction adds both visual weight and a secure, ergonomic pinch point, while the blade remains shaped around a versatile Japanese gyuto profile. There is substantial strength through the heel and spine, supported by a controlled taper toward a finer tip for more detailed work. The edge profile favours push and pull cutting, with enough curvature for limited rocking, and the low convex geometry is designed to balance confident food release with a composed feel through dense produce.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBrook finishes the knife with an octagonal handle in highly figured Lignum Vitae burl and buffalo horn. The natural density and colour of the timber sit particularly well against the dark forged surfaces and soft contrast of the etched cladding. It is a technically ambitious, materially rich piece that brings together Brook’s characteristic emphasis on performance, forge craft and strong tactile presence.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brook Turner","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57310456578313,"sku":null,"price":1986.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0581\/7273\/5626\/files\/Gyuto240mmSemi-IntegralWroughtIronNiApexUltraLignumVitaeBurl_BuffaloHorn0008.jpg?v=1789953572","url":"https:\/\/moderncooking.com\/en-us\/products\/gyuto-240mm-semi-integral-wrought-iron-ni-apex-ultra-lignum-vitae-buffalo-horn","provider":"moderncooking.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
