Highly recommend with new base under warranty.

Edit 3/8/2018: I spoke to Yost customer service about the base swivel Pat was friendly, helpful and after filling out the warranty email - Forms they sent without hesitation to the new base. It arrived and I installed it today. The new locking plate in this base works great - the bolts don't twist and the pivoting action is smooth and easy. I've changed this rating from 4 to 5 stars to recognize both the great vise and excellent customer service. First review: I've unknowingly suffered from…

Good quality vice in hand tools

This is a great vise. The operation is so smooth that you can do it with one finger, it is fixed well and firmly. If the jaws are firmly pressed together, the swivel head can become stiff. Simply release the latch, rotate the head to the desired location, and latch again. If you plan on hitting something with a hammer every day, it might be worth getting a heavy-duty steel vise.

Pros
  • Clamping force for casting: 7000 lbs. and Torque: 165 ft-lbs
Cons
  • Available in white only

Good imported medium vise. This thing is HIGH!

Vise arrived in a box. The working height of the jaws is 9" from the top edge the bank . My gun shop has a working height of 46.75" off the ground. Not unwieldy, but takes some getting used to. There is some play or play in the dynamic jaw and a little in the spindle, but when it's secured the work is fine. The head rotates to raise the jaws or pipe clamp to work, there is a small set screw on the handle to hold the rotation in place, but it doesn't stand alone, once you clamp the work the…

Pros
  • Q235 machined main screw from .74"D steel with knurled acme threads 4 turns per inch
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
