    143rd st wHi Folks,
    I am about a day away from purchasing the Pro Pack 2 along with the Gen 3 Clamp. According to the specs, the maximum blade thickness accommodated is 3/16″. There are quite a few knives that I am interested in acquiring whose blades are thicker than the maximum. Are there any hacks to get the Gen 3 clamp to accept thicker blades?
    Thanks for any help that you can offer,
    Alan

    Working to make knife.wickededgeusa.com a great forum!

    Clay has in the works some interchangeable jaws that will fit the Gen 3 vise to accommodate thicker blades. Not sure when to be released, but I think I read sometime soon.

    If you didn’t want to wait then, for a minimum fee of about $90 you could get set up like this!
