There are Danvises showing up regular on ebay.  Recently there have also been 'Large Hook' replacement jaws showing up there for about $20.00.  Or you can but the Danvise with the large jaws for about $75.  Look there, if that's an option.  I am happy with my regular one for about 5 years now.

Nick,
I used the Danvise for years and it has served me well. I doubt if you can
find a better vise for that money. Mark is right about the lack of
clearance, but... there are extensions (euro 18) that will give you all the
clearance you'll ever need. I can send you a pic if interested. And the
Danvise has a metal version too, called Metallica I believe. Comes with the
extension.
