Renzetti Apprentise A6001 C-Clamp Vise
A hinged-stem clamp vise for small to medium hooks, with a tension screw for turning the head.
Description
The hinged stem is useful if you want to change the approach to the fly while leaving the base clamped where it is. Set the tilt so you can reach the underside or the bend, then use the tension screw to control the head's movement. This is a good comparison point if access matters more to you than winding material with an inline rotary mechanism.

Fit and buying advice
Renzetti lists a range from #28 to #2 for the A6001 jaws. Check your largest hooks first if you tie bulky streamers. The 8-inch stem comes with the clamp package, so check underside clearance at the spot where you plan to use it.
Questions about this tool
Do I need a stand to use the clamp version?
The clamp is the mount. It requires an accessible table edge with clearance for its screw.
Which part lets me angle the work?
The hinge lets you change the stem angle. The separate rotary tension screw changes the resistance when you turn the head.
What if I routinely tie hooks larger than #2?
Compare the specific jaw and hook range of a different model, such as the Traveler, before ordering this package.
