ABSTRACT:
A vise to aid in bending a bone plate. The vise includes an elongate handle and a first clamp mechanism. The clamp mechanism includes a plate-receiving slot having an axis perpendicular to the long axis of the handle and rotationally fixed to the handle. The clamp mechanism also includes a moveable jaw bordering the plate-receiving slot. A jaw tightening mechanism urges the moveable jaw against a bone plate positioned in the plate-receiving slot to thereby secure the plate in the vise.
