    LRB,

    I recommend starting off with a beginner vise. It is inexpensive, you might learn how to tie better on one, and you will have a spare when you buy a better one down the road that you can lend to someone else who wants to try it.

    Another option is older Herter's or Thompson vises off of eBay.
