Pros

Holds hooks tight and rotates with the hook shaft in the center. Can hold anything from a size 22 dry fly to a 2/0 * head. Mine is smooth and i love the rotary when i tie now.



Cons

I even consult with a machinist and both of us were not satisfied with its operation. Device wobbles. Can't lock down rotary part to height bar. Not worth the money.

Quality


Holds hooks tight and rotates with the hook shaft in the center.


Great vise for someone who is starting out with the rotary function of it.


I have 2 issues with the vise:1) the lock down lever has a razor sharp end that i had to file down.

Price


But i can honestly say that this is a good vise at a good price.

Shipping


They asked for pic of the jaws and immediately sent me a replacement free of charge and no shipping.

Packaging/appearance


I like everything except sometimes it's easy to accidently release the hook by bumping the lever

Competitiveness


) we were looking at under $100 for our price-point.

    I was more worried about my hands getting sliced open more that any of the thread but it still was not safe

    I did find a youtube video of a guy that replaced the jams with renzetti jaws but at 100 i am just going to invest in a new vise

    If you are like me and just cant justify spending a lot on a true rotary vise this is the one for you

    I really like this vise but was shocked when the tip broke off and hit me in the lip ive been tying flys during our furlough from work and ive always had the hook fully in the vise i dont know why it managed to break guess my next vise will be a more pricy one i loved this one while it lasted
