I've been on the hunt for an Allcock Vise (Vice for our UK friends) model number 654 or 5776. These are from the early 1900's or a bit before. I'm not looking for something to put behind glass, but something to tie flies on at the Fly Tying Expos. I demonstrate tying older UK wet fly patterns and somehow, using my wonderful Snowbee-Waldron Vise (Vice) with antique hooks, Pearsall's silks, Cobbler's wax and natural furs just seems to be in bad form. I'd like to use a vise appropriate to the period.

If you have one collecting dust and would consider parting with it, please let me know. Maybe we can workout a deal that will let an old vise reside with me.
