TheBigHenderson 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2013 Haha I actually don't know what brand my vise is! I bought it in a kit four years or so back that came in a little wooden box with all of the tools necessary for tying, so I figured it was a good deal. It has actually been a great vise for the time I've had it, and I'll probably wait until it breaks down to get a new one Edward Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

the.atmos 0 Report post Posted March 6, 2013 Put me down for a dyna-king pro. have had it for 4 years not once have i ever had a problem with it. i like dyna king over renzetti because DK uses steel construction and renzetti uses aluminum. imo dyna king and hmh put the most into their products in terms of materials used and quality fit and finish.

smallies4ever 0 Report post Posted March 14, 2013 I started with a cheap vise, then picked up a Danvise, worked pretty well....then 5 yrs ago bought a Nor-vise. With the bench setup I currently have it works well for me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EBradish 0 Report post Posted April 8, 2013 Before I got all my own tools, materials and everything else I used a cheap no name kit vise of my Dads.. It was quite unpleasant to work with and when I decided to buy my own stuff I wanted do it once and only once. Sadly that isn't and will never be the case. New things keep coming out and everything seems to have one specific purpose these days.. If only I still had the funds to try everything. haha What I ended up with was a Renzetti Master and just recently a standard Regal on a custom made base. Intentions behind the regal were long streamers, but the lacking rotary ability kinda sucks being the way you rotate it is in the middle of your work space and the shaft gets in the way.. For jigs I doubt anything is better than the Regal, but all around vise the Renzetti wins for me. The clamping power of both is outstanding, but I definitely prefer the Renzetti by a mile when it comes down to details and ease of use. Only thing negative I can say is the base it comes with isn't big or heavy enough. I found a place who sells granite slabs and I think that's a worthwhile investment for sure..
