D.H. Thompson Pro II Vises Review

D.H. Thompson Pro II


Description
If you want a quality table top vise, may we recommend the Thompson Pro II. The strong jaws and heavy base make this a good choice without paying too much.

Summary:
ANY VISE IS ONLY AS GOOD AS ITS JAWS.
These jaws hold anything and last a lifetime.pro 2 is simple no frills, and bullet proof.It may not have the engineering of the other glamour makes, but if you seriously tie a lot of flies of all types, then this vise will do the business.

Customer Service:
Life time warranty ? Thompson have been around a long time, so they must do something right, despite tough competition, and blatent copies...

Summary:
The vise will work great for a begginer or someone who is tying every once in a while. I used mine all of the time and after 1year it couldn't take it.

Reviewed by: Anonymous User ,  50+ days a year , from Bogota, Colombia

Summary:
I have it as a backup vise. If you are familiarized with rotary vises, you will find hard to tie a fly on any non-rotary vise, as this one, but if you are habituated to tie flies on a non-rotary vise, this must be the election. Holds firmly hooks from 3/0 to 28, is very strong, and something let you know you are going to tie flies for a lifetime on it: It's quality.

I gave it 5 stars as a non-rotary vise, it is not comparable to a rotary vise.
