Terry simple is sometimes best, albeit are you saying that you can do longer than 6" lengths by folding and then sliding along in the vice to then fold, and so on? Clive mentioned marks on the steel, but I guess the aesthetics depend on where the folded part is seen or used.

I believe that 'Frost Automotive' in the UK do a reasonably priced bench/ vice folder on larger scale than the jaw version posted.
