Ok it has six inch wide jaws, rough shape though. I have several vises with six inch jaws, the range from 65lbs to 120lbs, weight is better in near anything connected with blacksmithing. If it is heavy it may be 1/4 of that asking price. I just hate to see a newbie jump on something rare, special, and believe the hype and grossly overpay. I did overpay for one of these large vises, and in just the past few years, $65, but it has a unique feature.
