    Soo its a toss up now. Its either the danvise or a peak non rotary vise. Not sure if ill even use the rotary on the vise soo im not worried about that I just want to get the best quality vise i can with what i have to spend.

    Don't forget about the griffin Odyssey spyder vice. I own one and love it. They cost around 100 give or take a few bucks. But really any rotary vice is an improvement over a fixed vice.

    I don't stock them, but Peak make a fine non rotary that is built like a tank. Great machine work and all. Look at their web site and it will last a life time!

    I got the rotary vise because I tied a lot of streamers and hate taking the hook out and flipping it all the time. I think the fixed Terra would work great for most tying. The rotary really does work well though and allows you to tie fixed while still having the option to rotate the jig/fly to different aspects for tying different patterns.
    I love taking my kids fishing, now if I could just manage to fish at the same time.

    Thanks for the replies! I just put my order in for the peak non rotary. I really like that it has a lifetime warranty.

    Anvil makes two named the apex and atlas. One of those is in your price range and I liked the way they handled and thought they were well built. The peak would be a good one, but I really like the rotary feature. Well worth the few extra bucks.

    Agree Skeet, I would be lost if I could turn that thing around now after 6 years of always a rotary and now the Nor has me totally spoiled.
