I have an Eisentraut, too, though from the '70s. From what I know of his history, he built race frames almost exclusively. He was probably the best American frame builder of the day, but I don't see him as compararble to Riv.
The fact of race vs touring frames is only one of many differences. He was and is a hands-on builder; Rivendell never was and isn't now. And frames is but a small part of Rivendell's business; most of it, I believe, is parts and clothing. Eisentraut never sold bees wax or soap.
