Default Tvrdek Rotary vice

Hi, Hope you can help me.

looking to buy a good vice, had plenty of the cheaper Indian vices which after a while seem to lose their ability to hold the hook adequately.

Was looking at a rotary vice as i would like to try different types of fly tying over the next few years.

I've seen the Tvrdek vice which has a unique hook holding system. has anyone used/got one and can the confirm the quality and longevity of it.

also looking at the j-vice and perhaps hmh sparton - any thoughts or other recommendations ?

I would like this to be my last vice I buy !

Merry Christmas
Regards
Mark Cotton

I've never seen or heard of it, neither has google despite offering several spelling options. Have you a link to it ?

Perhaps you should take a look at the following site as it has just about every vice manufacturer on there.. The Streamer List - Streamers & Bucktails: The Big Fish Flies

I have a Dyna-king Pro for 20+ years & given it a LOT of use. The jaws are the same today as the day I bought it & that was 2nd hand from a semi-pro tyer who'd had it for several years. If you are intersted in one, I have access to a few at a very good price.

I've had one four years and they're beautiful quality, but only ever having used this can't compare it to any other make.
