Couple posts on practical machinist suggesting that they're sourcing the same vises as shars, not doing the final grinding/qa domestically as they used to suggest. A few people posted photos that made it look like they were just repainting the shars vise.

Other than that, lots of ugly business between them and an ex employee who went on to start orange vise.

The ones we had were good, but prices went up since then. Either go with the cheaper shars vise, or wait for a 25-30% coupon with free freight from enco and pick up a Kurt. Would recommend the latter.
