I have one like this.

Did Columbian make these for Craftsman at the time?

Kudos should go to the fellow GJ member who did the restoration and sold it to me.

I see the 5197 is a 4 1/2" vise, according to this post.
looks like the big brother to the 5191

I notice mine has the craftsman embossed in the side, and not the tag.
Was hat a difference in years?

I never realized vices were so interesting until I started hanging around here. Never paid much attention to them as long as they did their job, seeing pictures of the different styles is quite enjoyable.

Yes it is.
I sort of started buying a few after I started hanging around here.
Although I got that craftsman around the early 90's.

Yeah, trouble is, I have several vises, but I bought my first bullet last year and now that's the only kind I want.
