Pros


Cons
This is vise that starts out as a "do-everything in a small portable package, vise." While not a complicated vise---the "universal" approach leaves it coming off like a "cute gadget" as opposed to a working vise. I like it but in no way would I fork out $400+for this little toy. Cabela's listed it for one year and I don't think they ever sold one.

Pros
A lot of engineering for the money. I used one while production tying for a year. It sets out to do a lot and it does it all better than I had expected. The quallity was also much more than I had thought it would be. The tube fly vice set up is one of the best I have seen. I did however have the advantage of being shown the opperation of the vice by Marc himself.

Cons
It tries to do so much that it has become fiddly for professional use. For the serious amature tier who wants a vice with all these features its slow opperation will not matter so much.

Pros
Its a very well thought out vise in that you can tie anything on it including tube flies. Great for a complete travel system. Has unlimited adjustments.

Cons
Not something I would want to do my everyday tying on, but then I don't think thats what it was designed for. Takes a little time to set up but when done it holds setting. Price is high but had to be for all you get. It may be the ultimate travel vise but can make do with a very less expensive one from Cabelas.
