not sure how old it is because i'm not a Parker vise expert, but if i had to guess i'd say 1920's or 1930's made.

i have a few of the other maker's swivel jaw vises and since i work with odd shape wood once in a while if you are interested in a different vise or want to sell it please PM me.

nice looking vise and did you find at a sale or is it one you got from one of your relatives? share any history you might know because the stories are almost as interesting as the vises.

Found it at an antique store along with some other vises. It seemed the most unique with the swivel jaw. It looks in perfect shape except for some pipe wrench marks on the centering pin where someone tried to remove it.
