We won't make these again like this.
The changes are 99% aesthetic, the vises function as you would expect any Benchcrafted product to, smoothly and effortlessly.
The details:
- "X" spoke design to denote the Roman numeral ten, for 10 years of vise production.
- Glide handwheel fitted with four knobs instead of the usual three
- Knobs turned from infused holly wood to suggest the look of real elephant ivory
- Knob washers and shoulder bolts turned in brass
- Available only as a Benchmaker's package (individual Glides or Tail Vises not available)
- You can choose which Crisscross mounting you'd like (Solo or Retro)
- Limited edition--will not be produced like this again
All other specs are identical to our M series Glide and Tail Vises.

We only kept 1 set for ourselves, and that's the honest truth. If you end up getting a package, we welcome pictures of your finished bench.
Happy New Year!
