Dyna-King Squire vise...anyone using it?

[FishTracker]

I'm looking to upgrade my fly tying vise and was considering the Dyna-King Squire. I've read some good reviews. Is anyone using it? If not, any other suggestions? Keep in mind the cost:value ratio.

 

Thanks!

Well the Dyna-King is around $175 and there's plenty to go at in that range. Do you need a rotary?

 

FWIW I was in Bass Pro at the weekend and the Peak rotary the have seems like a nice solid piece of kit and is $160, I ended up with a Terra Silverado for $50 as I don't need rotary and can't justify spending loads on a vice that won't see that much use.

 

Did a quick Google on the Dyna King and it gets good reviews (all their stuff is good) so if you like it and it's in budget, go for it

The rotation ability is definitely a nice addition. I'm currently using a kit vise without that functionality to tie all my flies. I hope to upgrade the least amount of times as possible so I'm looking for something that will suit me for many years to come. What I like about the Squire is the pedestal base (although optional on many vises), and legendary grip. The owner of a local shop told me he has had his Squire for nearing 20 years and still loves it! It just seems hard to justify the price for a piece of steel
