How much does a Starrett 924 weigh?

 

[rodm1]

Probable 70lb if a older model and in your price range grab it. They are very nice vises. The newer model are made of softer steel and don't hold up as well.

How can you tell the difference between an older and newer model?

Not, not at all, they're good too if they're US-made. I don't like some of them, but that's just personal preference.
