Nice. I see you are using the original jaws. Have you considered his "pro jaws"? It is a lot more tapered.
Is that his C clamp or some other?

Yes, I have thought about buying a second vice with the pro-jaws and will do that soon... I believe I was the first person to ask for the knob on the jaw cam lever... You can see when I first got mine in the photo it didn't have it... Tying as many flies as I do my finger would get sore from opening and closing the jaws so many times day after day... So, Jay fixed me up... And yes that is Jay's large C-clamp.
Does the knob come standard on the jaw cam lever now?
Is that C-clamp brass and if so is it standard?
Does Wasatch still handle them?
Can't seem to find a current price.
Knob comes standard.
You can see them and the prices at Jay's website. jvice.com
To see prices, click on the US order spreadsheet.
Thanks, Bryon and I forgot to ask...
I know it is rotary but haven't seen the words true rotary ....can't imagine it is not?
Yes, true rotary. There is a "set screw" where the jaws attach to the "J" housing. You can adjust them infinitely (almost) for any sized hook gape/gap.
It is the best vise I've ever tied on. Others, like the LAW are more beautiful and nearly as nice to tie on, but don't provide true rotary and the hook access this one allows.
