I field tested one before they came out. I really was impressed with it in every way.
The price is right and the jaws holds tight.. and the company works very with customers. I would, however, refer you to this article by Hans W. from Fly Fisherman magazine. http://www.flyfisherman.com/ftb/hwvise/index24.html Also, I thought I would throw in a picture for thows that have maybe never seen it before.

I've tied with one for a couple of years. I have both the standard jaws and midge jaws. I cannot speak highly enough for its performance, functional
aesthetic design, and price. Like anything everyone has preferences, but if you're in the market you should give it a try.

The Peak vise is one of the great deals left in fly tying. Earilier this year we did a comparison of a couple dozen fly tying vises on www.flyfishohio.com. The Peak took top honors. I love the replaceable jaws, the midge jaws are really challenged only by
Anvil in that price range. You can read the complete review and manufacturer's comments here.
