I think it's a good vise. I had one, upgraded it, but it was a fine vise. It's not a true rotary vise, but it does rotate to where you can see the other side of the flies. The jaws are grooved and it holds the hook well. For me, the stem is a bit short for a C clamp, but it's OK with the stand. I wish the stand had a larger footprint for bearing down on spinning deer hair.

 

It's a very good vise at a very good price. You can't go wrong.

I use a Danvise, and I love it, and it sure improved my tying being able to look at both sides. As they say to each his own ! Good tying to all, milo3

For the past 10 years I have used the Dyna-King Barracuda for commercial tying and it has performed very well. I have tied 10's of thousands of flies and its still going strong.

Now using a Jvice. Great. Can't fault it. Hook hold is brilliant.

I use a DanVise, full rotary.. the only thing that is bad about it is when you put really small hooks in the paint chips off the inside of the tips and then you have to move your hooks back in to the jaws more to hold the hook.. The good thing is the replacement jaws are only ten dollars.. the vise only cost 75 dollar to buy also.

I use a Nore-Vise. I love the weight so the spinning is so easy.
