The Apprentice Rotary Vise is a straightforward, workhorse tying vise built for reliable hook holding from size #28 through #2. Machined from glass-beaded aluminum with a durable powder-coated finish, it combines solid stability with manageable weight on the bench. The smooth rotary head uses an aluminum tension knob and black-oxide jaws and housing to keep hooks locked in while you spin and inspect your work. Available with either a strong C-clamp base for bench-edge mounting or a stable 5" x 5" pedestal base with an 8" hinged stem, the Apprentice Rotary Vise lets you dial in a comfortable tying position whether you’re at a permanent station or a temporary setup.
