Griffin Odyssey Spider Vise Instructions

The Griffin Odyssey Spider Vise is an entry-level rotary for fly tying. It is the least expensive vise by Griffin, but it does not lack quality. It holds hooks ranging from 4/0 to 28 and it has a durable, metal jaw. The vise can be used as an entry level to rotary tying techniques. It uses a handle to rotate the jaws for a more efficient tying style. The vise uses a c-clamp for stability on a fly-tying table.
