Not much love for offset jaw vices here.

This is the old girl I had blasted and repainted for my new shop bench.

Allows you to clamp longer items without the vice slide getting in the way.

I’m at work, so just googled example pictures, shown below.

Made in Australia by Dawn, sold as Wiltons for a while, until 2002.

Fabricated in stainless steel if you like.

Wow! Really cool idea.

 

[Ppavolko]

I can honestly say, i have never seen one like that before.

Here’s an interesting one that came on my drill press. “Float vice”. Haven’t really put it to use yet but I think I’ll like it.

Those are great to have on a drill press!

If they all had them, I'd be less one large scar on my forearm..

Is this the place to talk about buying a new vise?

Was going to buy a Wilton but I see they are not made in the USA.

Are you sure the Wilton Bullet vise is not made in the USA? I thought they where still made in Illinois, may be wrong.
