Resurrecting this old thread because my Brother-in-Law is asking for a recommendation for a beginner fly tying kit. Specifically, I'm wondering if anyone has experience with the Orvis Encounter Vise & Tool Set - particularly with the vise. I feel like the vise is typically where most kits go wrong and I feel like that can quickly lead a beginner to frustration.

On the top of my Christmas list this year is a fly tying kit so I can get back into tying and spend the colder months preparing for warm weather in the spring. My mother-in-law asked me to send her a link to where she could find/order one for me (awesome).
As I was looking around and reading reviews of different kits it seemed that quite a few people felt it made more sense to buy the tools and materials individually to avoid ending up with a lot of materials I don't plan to use. Are there any kits you all would recommend or do you agree with this? I am starting totally from scratch, so I'll need a vise, tools, materials, the whole deal.
Thanks!
