Description
The GRS Standard Engraver's Block (also known as an engraver's ball or setter's ball) is a solid-steel, USA-made vise designed for engraving, stone setting, and precision bench handwork. Non-glare satin chrome and black jaws reduce unwanted reflections to minimize eye strain during detailed work. Fully adjustable rotational resistance lets you fine-tune drag to match your working style. At 19 lb (8.6 kg)—approximately 25% heavier than comparable-size blocks—it delivers rock-steady support and smooth, controlled rotation for a lifetime of professional use.
