I think once the decision has been made to upgrade ... price while important certainly, should not be the deciding factor. When it was time for me to upgrade, I sat down and tested each vise personally. Each vise has a different "feel" to it. I tried them all ... Dyna King ( which I think I would have purchased if I tied a lot of larger patterns or salt water tying ) the Law and the Renzetti stood out for me. Again by the "feel" of the vise while tying. The Law is a great vise but I ended up with the Renzetti. For some reason it made me "feel" at home. I've had the vise now for three years and have no complaints at all with it's performance. Lawsuits aside, they make great vises. So my advise would be to sit down and tie a fly on each. The right one will stand out.
