Just received my new to me Umnumzaan and it is in very good shape. Birthday March 17, 2009. I stope it and it went back to a nice sharpness but I will have to work on the blade a little. I may send it in for a refurbishment to start fresh but not sure yet, This will be a user but I will decide when I receive my break down tool (ordered) and clean it all up.
In a week and half I have purchased two new Sebenza"s (small and large) and one used Umnumzaan. I think I better slow down before my wife figures out what I have done. Just kidding, she doesn't really care. I really like the Umnumzaan a lot, can't say if I like it more than my large Sebenza. Their both new to me and both are such nice knives, it is rather hard to split the baby on this one. I do like the thicker tip and blade of the Zaan, but I really like the sleekness classic blade of the Sebenza.
Oh well, I thought I just share. By the way, this is an addictive forum!
