Purchased this mainly for building golf clubs (so I didn’t need anything super heavy duty), but also needed a decent vise for any home projects. Had a small clamp on vise that worked, but just wasn’t as good as a bench mount. Have been skeptical of the small home vises due to many bad reviews. I read the reviews on this LV-4 and one in particular changed my mind. That reviewer stated that in his opinion, this is not a home vise, but rather closer to a small industrial grade vise. That alleviated any concerns. It is now installed and just works great! Very smooth operation. Couldn’t be happier. Great quality at a very good price!

I got 2 of these Yost vises on sale, $27 ea. Chinese, which is OK, I don’t need high-end vises. One had a broken swivel-base, but HD replaced it without hassle. I didn’t expect much. Surprise — they’re decent light-duty vises. A bit of grease to screw and base-plate, & they’re smooth as butter.

The reason I gave it a 4 star is that it’s made in China.

I tightened the swivel to much on the one this replaces and broke the whole side out of the base. This one seems to be stronger especially since it has 4 mounting bolts instead of the 3 from the previous vise.

i bought this vise for an AR15 build, Swivel base was little loose but easily fixable with washer, completed my project with no problem. Vise is perfect size for gunsmithing. I’m buying another for indoor workbench.

It serves the purpose that I needed, a small/medium vise to hold chainsaw bar and other equipment in the yard tool shed. My cousin and I were comparing today’s vise construction with our grandfather’s shop vise. How did we come to accept modern mediocrity so quickly. Cost, I guess.
