This fixed tool is mounted to a workbench securely and has jaws to hold pieces of wood in place.

A vice comes in handy when you need to use two hands to work on a piece or if the work you need to do on said piece is intricate. It should be bolted into a surface - like a table or a workbench. The jaw is then squeezed shut on the wood thereby freeing up your hands.
