Hello Davide! 
I think the KF 20 mill might be a little too small for what you will be doing. In my opinion you would be much happier and more comfortable with the work space provided by one of the KF 16 variants.
The cost difference in the vices you are looking at is because the more inexpensive ones are designed for use on a drill press only. Heavier built machine vices for use on a mill are obviously more expensive. They hold your work much more securely than a drill press vice. The side forces from a mill cutter demand having your material held very solidly.
