I've done some pretty bad things to vises before but still always wonder how in the hell some one manages to break the jaw like that.

Fine but TBH I wouldn't really consider that good anything. OK condition, but repaired.

That weld is like a mole on a pretty girls face, you just can't keep from staring.

That is not a mole, that is a bad case of leprosy.

^The strength of the vise has been compromised. If under use and it cracked, how do you think a brazed joint will hold up?
