Ok I know it doesn't but just pawned off some striders and picked up a Lignum Mnandi to compliment my Ums. Did not think I would dig it other than for something that calmed the I wanna new knife urge. Wow this thing is sooo smooth and delicate yet solid. I want a mammoth NOW. You really appreciate CRK's so much after handling other knives for a bit and then returning to a CRK. Wish I had one of these way earlier!

Good Score, I have 4 mnandi and love them all. They are awsome knives for their size, very tough and precision engineered. Just as we all have come to expect from Chris Reeve, The Man is a Genius. I am always hoping for one a bit larger........CRK can you hear me

I've taken to complimenting my Umnum with a smaller knife, but whenever I carry the Um I feel bad for not carrying the Seb. Maybe that smaller knife should be another Seb soon...
I had a Mnandi and must agree that it was very smooth and solid, especially for the size. A ton of cutting power packed into a small beautiful sleek package.
However I got rid of it because I really have no use for a gentlemans knife at this time, since my Small Sebenza is close enough in size to the Mnandi and I prefer its blade and grip.
BUT if there comes a time when I want/need a gentlemans knife it will most definately be a Mnandi. They are just great little knives.
