This is will likely draw a blank, but has anyone ever heard of Foot brand ?  It's the common size ,9" , but instead of a cam clamp, it has a pivot half way up and  a old fashioned wing nut . It also tilts, but with a more common lever nut. It's solid and draws up tight, so I don't think I wasted the $10 at the fleamarket. The other find was a cute little die stock, THE ST CO , NO-10. I rather doubt I'll ever need a 5/8" die stock, chuckle.
Any saw vice that holds saws securely is a good saw vice. Yours has a wing nut, but the cam style has issues and the cams wear.  You can shim the cams and that works fine, again, if it holds the saw securely, you're good.
