Nicely done!! I have one gifted to me by a friend. It is functional, but needs some love for sure. I am going to clean it up much like you did. I am however lucky it looks 100% complete.

Looks good. I bought a new Kanca 6". Much easier and it is welded. Im not a fan of wedges that might come loose during use. I prefer bolted and welded joints. If you do any smithing at all the vise is a crucial tool. Forge On!

Awesome and you are right mine is missing that as well. I do not have the equipment yet to work the metal that I need to yet.

Nice job. I would be wary of that spring though. You are right about the box and screw being the high-wear parts. They are a better sign to look at than the handle when checking out an old post vice. That spring is going to put a lot of unnecessary and pointless wear on both the screw and box. Most of those old vices have little to nothing acting as a spring, and they work fine. I have used mine for 30 years with a spring that did nothing. Have fun, Blacksmithing is a most enjoyable craft.

If you new in the game of smithing I'd recommend watching John from Black Bear Forge. Need more Aussies in the game. I appreciate you. Keep up the great content!!!

Hey John, nice project and result! I have an exact same leg vice in my shop here in tbe Netherlands, exact duplicate. The only makers mark I found was a small anchor and "Amsterdam" stamped next to it. Do you know more about the origins of your vice?

Hey, Thanks I've got no idea of the origins of mine. I'm from Australia and bought it off a fella who had plans to restore it but never got there. I can't find any markings on mine but would be keen to know if anyone could identify it.
