Turnus saw vice

[Brent Smith]

I just came across this vise in one of my favorite woodworking stores. Has anyone used one before ? I've been wanting to try my hand a saw sharpening for a while, even bought the vise that Lee Valley sells, I found it to be a bit lite weight for the job. The Turnus seems to be a solid well made vise, but, at the price they're asking I'd like to get some feedback from someone that's actually used one.

Brent, I'm not familiar with that particular saw vise. I do have three others that I have picked up at antique stores, they have been pretty easy to find. I paid about $20 each for a couple of Disston Vises and another one that I can't remember the name of. They all work really well and were worth the large outlay of cash. :)
