I have a number of Ghurka bags including 1980's era bags in canvas and leather as well as the one you show but in a pebble grain leather. My wife bought it for me in 2003 and i love it. It is my favorite carryon/overnight bag. Around 2004 the brand was sold and the production went from the USA to China. Some accessories went to Italy. Sad to say, they just aren't the same. The leather doesn't have the same finish. It feels harder and slightly thinner. The company also went head-first into the fashion handbag business which seems to have been a failure. They seem to have lost their direction. I never see any of their bags in stores in the Bay Area any more.
