njanvilman Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Ultra rare FISHER #1 Vise. This is the smallest double screw vise Fisher made. It originally sold for about $7, over 125 years ago. Worth a whole lot more today. This is the only COMPLETE #1 publicly known. The only non-original part is the handle. Weight is about 25 lb. I am sure that there are more hiding in someones basement or barn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njanvilman Posted February 13, 2015 Author Share Posted February 13, 2015 If anyone out there in blacksmithland knows of another of these for sale, I will pay a finders fee. And throw in some other stuff too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WayneCoeArtistBlacksmith Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Isn't that what I bought from Black Frog year before last at Quad State? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't quite remember. #1 are super rare. I had never seen a #1 until this one came along, except in old ads and photos. #2 and bigger are much more common.
