The most important thing about a vice is its ability to hold a hook. Don't go cheap, as many cheap vices have poor vice jaws. After that, make sure it is reasonably comfortable where you're tying. It has got to adjust to a comfortable height. Lastly, whistles and bells. I have tied for years with a Regal. It is the best on the market for simplicity for attaching a hook in the vice jaws and does the best job holding the hook. It does not have the nice rotary capabilities of the Dyna King.

Visit a shop and try tying with a couple of models to find out what works best for you. The old Thompson Model A does a super job for a very fair price. You can go up from there.
