    Good grief. It's not like it's A.K.'s personal equipment; it just has his name on it.

    I was at the Show in College Park, MD years ago and he was tying a Quill Body PMD. He had pulled some spade hackle fibers off for the tail and was trying to even up the tips but couldn't find a small stacker; rummaged around and found a spent .22 case and used that. He could get someone to stamp his name on a bunch of them and make a small fortune today.

    Regards,
    Scott

    Wow, that's a lot for a vise that had quality problems with jaw breakage... I suppose if you just want to look at it on a shelf for $1500 bucks, then go for it,,,, But hey it's a tool, your not going to sell it 5 years down the road and put a kid through college! ...
