I know this has come up in the past, but it's been a while. Don't get me wrong... I love the Mnandi design as is. I think, though, that I'd love it even more if the blade had a swedge option similar to that available for the Sebanza. Anyone else of the same mind? Am I being selfish?

I discussed this with Ann at Blade a few years back and a swedge is not possible on the Mnandi due to the the very thin blade stock and the length of the angle of the top of the blade. There is not enough material to do it without compromising the integrity of the blades strength.
