I'll tell you this much, if I were buying another vise right now I'd go with the Danvise. Yesterday, I used one for the first time at a store in Eastern, PA, and I thought it did everything very well. My only concern would be longevity since I haven't owned one. I can't see why it wouldn't hold up though. I like my Renzetti Traveller, but If I would have seen the Danvise first I would have gone in that direction. More money doesn't always mean more quality. Al & Gretchen seem like such nice people--I wouldn't hesitate to take their word on it.
