Default Seek advice on Fly Tying Vices

This winter I plan on finally learning to tie my own flies. Something I have
wanted to do for years, but never got around to it. There is a place not far
from my home that is offering a two day starter course for a reasonable
price that will have about 15 or so students enrolled. The brochure states
that students must bring their own vice/tools to class - OK - no problem.

My question is what are some manufacturers names that you guys might
recommend. I know that Renzeti has a very good name, with a price tag to
match. I don't mind spending the money on a Renzeti, if it is in fact called
for. I have seen some other manufacturers out there like Griffin, and
Barracuda for considerably less money, but still not considered cheap. Does
one have to spend top dollar to get a decent vice?

I fly fish 30-40 times a year, and I use streamer flies a lot, if that info
makes any difference.

Thanks in advance.
