The Manandi has way more detailing then this new slipjoint appears to have. Beyond the inlays. Like the logo on the pocket clip. Detailing takes time and those man-hours cost money. I'm just finding it hard to justify them charging as much for this knife as one that takes a lot more work to put together.
I'm aware of how much machine work is in each..Been a machinist for 30yrs. That logo doesn't take that long to create.
If you want to compare the logo time, have a looksee on the inside of the Impinda- you will see "Idaho made" and Bill Harsey's signature engraved in.
There just isn't that much difference in them..The Mnandi may slightly edge out the Impinda..Slightly.
