Default Wilton "Tradesman" bench vise

I'm thinking of buying this 4 1/2" Wilton:
http://www.use-enco.com/CGI/INSRIT?PMAKA=426-1010

It's a great (new) price, especially if Enco has a July free shipping
promo. BUT, is the Tradesman still a quality vise, or has it gone Asian
and its quality to hell with it? I know Wilton has lesser models that
are definitely cheap Asian, but how about the Tradesman specifically?

Thanks,
Bob
