Anyone have this vise. It is rather unique. Has a base of bronze and was billed as one you could tie on the stream with. Has a strap to hang it from your neck and the base would rest against your chest....not that I would want to use it on the stream.....just part of the maker's claims.
Anyway, I am not sure of the material of the jaws. It almost looks like copper, but I don't believe it is copper.
Wonder if any of you might know?
Nice vise. The jaws look bronze to me.

im not a metalurgist, but my guess would brass, i think copper would be to soft and the jaws would crack after very little use
They aren't brass or bronze. Might try a close-up pic. Nobody have one of these?
