I decided to find a custom maker for a briefcase after months of fruitless searching in shops and online.
What I'm shooting for is a classic case with a double gusset and I wanted the leather to be extremely durable. So I settled on this as my starting point:
I'm having some changes done to this:
1) Double gusset instead of single
2) Brass hardware instead of nickle
3) Slightly larger (the one pictured is 15" in length)
The leather is full grain American steerhide, cut from the shoulder I believe.
I should be receiving my case sometime in the first week of June so I'll be sure to post a review.
