vises
Jawed shop holders
Vises is the plural of vise, a clamping tool with two jaws that tighten by means of a screw, used to hold objects steady while working on them: The woodworker secured the board in one of the vises along the bench.
Figuratively, anything that grips tightly or traps: caught in the vises of addiction and poverty.
