This is an interesting vise I picked up at a local auction. I bought it because of its unique design and clamping options. I had no idea who made it, and could find no others like it with a google picture search. Finally found it shown and listed in a Gorton Small tools and accessories catalog here on Vintagemachinery,org. This is smaller then any of the sizes listed. Has K40 on the base casting.
