I've been experimenting with some briefcase ideas, incorporating some of my hand-made brass and exotic wood handles and hardware. This one is also lined with an Italian wool men's suit material. Simple single gusset brief, but I've adopted/adapted the rod look from the music breifcases. Great littel bag, and with the brass and Purpleheart handle, it really is nice to carry.

Overall I'm quite happy with it, though I think that the leather would be more suited to a turned bag...that'll be next on my list.

a very interesting design. you executed it quite well. i like the closure hardware and how it was done. what is the leather that you used? was it dyed by horween? great idea on the lining material. it reminds me of a 1960's era lining.

Very nice work. The brief case is a beauty.

Cool briefcase, and a very interesting design. Yes, what exactly is the weight and name of the Horween?

Beautiful. That handle is really something. Working with some exotic hardwood and brass at the moment, I can really appreciate that.

Very nice.
