A hand-held vise device for holding the ends of lines to facilitate tying them together. It includes a U-shaped base formed of a pair of similarly profiled U-shaped plates, disposed with one overlying the other. The base includes a pair of leg portions interconnected by a web portion. Each leg portion has an associated lever extending generally along its length with one end of the lever adjacent the distal end of the leg portion. Vise tension is provided by an elastomer expanse encircling each leg portion and its associated lever, urging the lever's one end toward the distal end of the leg portion. Each elastomer expanse has joined to it a pad expanse interposed between the distal end of a leg portion and an end of a lever.
