Wilton vise shop king info

[orchidlane]

Hello All, Love looken at all the Wilton vise's, so I have been trying to collect some of my own, just found this Wilton red shop king 3 1/2 inch vise at a swap meet, is there a way to tell the age like you can on a bullet vise ? also the same guy had the stand that looks like its for a vise and kinda looks like Wilton blue, any one have any info on the vise and stand ? thanks.

I've got a non-bullet Wilton model 1644 and the date was stamped on the bottom of the base. Check there first. If it's not there, they sometimes stamp it on top or bottom of the square piece that covers the main screw. You'll have to tear it down to get at it probably.
