針夾，0.045 - 0.135"，Starrett

Those hardened jaws really bite down on a tap shank without any slipping, even when I’m turning it hard. The knurled collar gives a surprisingly precise grip too — a few turns and it’s locked solid. This is the one I reach for every time now.

I love how this pin vise handles the smaller drill bits—the hardened jaws grip securely without slipping, and it feels much sturdier than my old one. For delicate work on model parts, this thing is a lifesaver.

The locking mechanism on this pin vise is rock solid. I've been holding tiny scribers and small files for a few weeks now, and the hardened jaws haven't slipped once, even when I'm really bearing down on it. A few turns of the binding nut and it's set, exactly as promised.
