Looking at the picture, the vise appears to be in good shape, but you need to inspect it. Rock Island vises are good vises. The thing that bothers me with the one shown is it only has the name cast on it. Older vises have the model number and USA cast on them. I don¡¯t know the history but wouldn¡¯t be surprised if the name/business was bought out and now cast overseas. If it is a USA model, I would grab it.
