Byron's Soft Hackle in new Jaws

Couldn’t resist. I can’t get over how beautiful these JVICE jaws are.
I just got them yesterday and think they’re awesome!!

I suffered a few moments of vertigo, and then discovered I needed to put my 3D glasses on! :slight_smile:

Seriously though…That IS cool!

I love the look of Damacus steel, except in a shotgun barrel, I would love to have access in a blacksmith and machine shop and guidance. Hammering on hot steel is good for the soul, as is making sawdust.

Good looking fly I need to tie a few of those for when it warms up a little.

Very nice! The fly and the vise.

Byron,

Have heard of the JVICE, but never really took a good look at one. Went to their site. That is one sweet tying machine! I have to admit that you do get a little more satisfaction tying on a well engineered tool than on a pair of vise grips! All the different metals and parts make my eyes glaze over. It looks very functional - not just another pretty face! Those Damascus steel jaws are nice - almost distractingly nice! Enjoy your tying! BTW, nice fly - kinda reminds me of Polly Rosborough’s casual dress pattern.

Best regards, Dave S.
