I needed a good tie bar, so I bought this one. It is perfect for normal to wider sized ties. However, it isn't the best quality. Seems cheap or flimsy. The teeth that are supposed to grip the back of the tie to hold everything in place do not have a firm hold, despite their appearance. It's clamp was loose at best, wobbling and nearly impossible to keep straight. It works if you want a cheap one that will do in a pinch I guess, but if not, keep browsing...
