I own both.

I tied on the Renzetti for 5 years or more. Upgraded to the cam head.
Finally decided taht I needed something better(more expensive ) and went to
the Barracuda.
Without a doubt the Barracuda is better built, and will last longer but it
is also much more expensive. One of the nice things about the Renzetti
which not true about the barracuda is that the head can be balanced by the
handle, and when youturn the fly to get at the bottom or the side, it will
stay their on its own. The Barracuda has a tendency to want to go back to
the straight tying position, and you have to set a screw to keep it turned.
If money was an issue, I would go with the Rezetti. It will last you 5
years or more, and will do all you want.

I am considering a new vise, and would like to hear from anyone that has
used both Renzetti (Traveler or Presentation) and Dyna King Barracuda
vises.
Unfortunately, I really don't have access to either for testing.

Thanks,
