Long known as the bulldog of tying-bench vises, Regal builds American-made fly tying vises around a signature jaw that grips hooks securely with no adjustment: just insert and tie. With 360 degree rotation and multiple head options, a Regal vise handles everything from tiny midges to large saltwater streamers.
Regal fly tying vises are precision-engineered tools built for tyers who value reliability above all. Each Regal vise is American-made from stainless steel, bronze and aluminum and centered on Regal's signature jaw system, which holds hooks securely within each jaw's intended size range without manual tightening. You simply set the hook and begin tying.
Regal jaw and head options
That simplicity, paired with 360 degree rotation on many models and a choice of head configurations, makes Regal a trusted choice for both beginners and lifelong fly tyers. The head options cover the full working range:
Standard jaw: roughly #22 to #1 for most freshwater and saltwater patterns.
Midge jaw: reaches down to the smallest hooks for tiny nymphs and dries.
Big Game jaw: extends up to 5/0 for tarpon, salmon and other large species.
From fine dry flies to heavy streamers, Regal vises, tools and accessories are built for strong hook-holding and long bench life. If you are weighing a Regal against other brands, our guide to choosing the right fly tying vise walks through rotary versus fixed heads and what to prioritize.
Do Regal vises need adjustment for different hook sizes?
No. The spring-loaded jaw grips hooks across its rated range without manual tightening, so you insert the hook and tie.
Are Regal vises true rotary?
Regal vises rotate a full 360 degrees for access around the hook, though they are valued primarily for jaw strength rather than in-axis rotary tying.
