Customer Review: Number Of Reviews: 6 good vise for my son 11/16/2009 Reviewer: Joel Szymczyk (joel.szym@gmail.com) from New Cumberland, PA US I purchased this vise for my ten year old son who is just getting very interested in tying. I started him out on my HMH, but had a few worries about bent vise jaws, and I remember what I did to my first vise at his age... Out of the box the vise head would not stay positioned no matter how tight the screw was torqued with the supplied allen wrench. In fact the screw was incredibly tight in the collar to begin with. The collar was too long, and would not let the nut/screw pinch the vise head onto the stem tight enough. Rather than mess with sending it back I just removed the part and filed several thousandths off so the screw could tighten properly. Problem fixed. We have tied quite a few flies so far and my son likes the vise. The jaws are a bit out of alignment but it holds hooks very securely (medium range hooks, from 10 to 2 is what we've used). The paint is flaking off the spring handle right out of the box. It is a $35 vise, not a $350 vise, and it is worth the $35 if you are willing to make a few tweaks and live with some minor issues. It is a $35 copy of a Regal, so don't expect it to be the same quality as a Regal. My son loves the fact that he does not need to goof around with jaw tension adjustment. I would not expect it to perform well with either very small hooks or very large hooks. For "average" trout, bass, and panfish tying though, it seems to work fine. Was this review helpful to you? Displeased user 10/28/2009 Reviewer: Bryan Hobbs (bshobbs-habu@embarqmail.com) from Kenansville, NC US When I first received this vise it worked fantastic. I have had it only about 7 months. But over the past few months it has not been right. The lever flips and flops around. The jaws do not open fully. I can only get a small hook in the vise. I use to be able to put a vast array of sizes in the vise. I've just quit using it. I'll be looking for another brand soon. I've had to go back to the old standby AA $7 dollar vise.

Tying has been a pleasure ever since. I find the design to very good and tough. I recommend this vise for every novice tier.

Holds hooks of all sizes good. I tie 20s to large streamer hooks and I must say I love this vise. It is a good solid vise for all experience levels. I give it 5 stars for what it is and the price.

This vice is serving me very well. Fantastic buy and it works really well. I recommend this vice for anyone starting out, especially if you have a limited budget. dc Was this review helpful to you?
