I always wondered where that case got off to, that was tough to build.

Looks a lot like a model H-L.

If it's one of Jack's cases it's made using Wicket and Craig veg tanned leather. I don't believe Jack would ever use anything other than leather, he was very proud of his work and wouldn't have done anything to jeopardise his reputation.

In 2007 I bought a 2x4 with extra tooling, two pockets, shoulder pad, diamonds in the pockets and it was 725 shipped.

I think Billy Burke might do that.

The OP owns it now, I was just posting a picture of it in different lighting.

I don't think most people have any idea how long it takes to build a case, lots of steps and lots of waiting on things to dry are involved. I had guys think it only took two days to build a fully carved case, it takes that long to draw the pattern.

I had one exactly like that one, minus the logo.

I wouldn't take the bottom off if it was me, I'd pull it out of the top

Oh, no sir I can't. I retired from the case business almost a year ago. Sorry sir, I've retired from case making, I was just trying to help you get the interior out. Like I said it should just pull out.

Ususally you can just pull the entire tube out, material and all by grabbing the material in the tube and giving it a yank. I know my 2x4 tube cases fit a 2x4 JB interior so maybe this will work for you. If you can get it out and the tubes don't fit you can always put the old one back in.

Any custom case maker should able to build you any lenght you need.

Oh, that's fine, no apology needed. Good luck with your sale.

I built the interior unless it's been changed out.

Pretty case Al!

Thanks Davor, I hope you are enjoying it!

That's a nice case, great job!

The top of the points are sharp.

Myth cases are built by Cardoso Pedro, still alive and well. The maker you are thinking of was Marc Turcasso who built Matcase cases. Marc passed away on October 8, 2020.
