njanvilman Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 Fisher & Norris #4 Bench Vise recently added to the Fisher & Norris Factory Museum collection. This #4 is the largest of the bench vises produced by F&N. It has 6" jaws, and weighs about 130 lbs. These vise are very rare. The Museum has 2, and I have only seen one more. I am sure there are others out there. This vise was made around 1920. F&N actually made about 30 different styles of the bench vises during this era. More information can be found in my book. Details in my profile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 She's a beast Josh, how many F&N bench vises do you have? I know you say you have two but I'm not clear if you mean two + this one or two of this model/size? Frosty The Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njanvilman Posted December 3, 2022 Author Share Posted December 3, 2022 The collection has this one, a #4 size, and a #1 size. That is it. We do have a lot of the double screw vises, of all three generations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irondragon Forge ClayWorks Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 Hi Josh, Have you seen this anvil that looks like a Fisher but seems to be cast steel? https://www.iforgeiron.com/topic/70100-identification-of-this-avil-mark/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
