You might want to cool the jets of your linguistic outrage.
"vice" is a perfectly good spelling for the workbench or machine tool mounted device.
In the country where English was born, "vice" can mean either a jawed gripping device or a bad habit/immoral behaviour. Working out which meaning is intended is almost always clear from the context.
You American fellows invented so much of what we talk about on here, it feels a bit churlish to complain about you chaps not referring to the 'top slide' as the 'compound slide' and the oft repeated incorrect British use of "swarf" instead of the correct term "chip" is best avoided, but in this case, using the spelling "vice" is perfectly acceptable.

I have a vise vice...
I just bought another one...
It's a Brink and Cotton, made in Bridgeport, Connecticut.
I also just picked up a box of pneumatic rivet tools...
And a pile of rivet sets...
I finally found a use for my old Kennedy TC-20 tackle box...
