Any of you guys notice you don't see many murnaks for sale? I am thinking these must have no down falls and our keepers for great all around protection from weather changes & easy on the finish from taking them in & out of the case!! :wink:
 
Murnak!

Yep I have posted many times how much I like mine. Now that I think about it not only is it a great case but Jim does not get involved in the constant over the top self promotion plus it is made in the USA. I am liking it even more than before. Mine has been beaten and still does the job and it was one of his first prototype cases so the newer ones are probably even better!
JMO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have a custom 2x5, and it's a damn fine case. They're a little on the large size, but they are light for their size. The tubes are roomy so the parts will move around within them, but I don't think there's any great danger for the cautious.
 
Jim makes the absolute BEST case on the market, by ANY measurement, bar none.

And like the VAST MAJORITY of people, I too find the self-promoting import king with the apparent Napoleon complex quite annoying.

You can't go wrong with a Murnak. I've owned two, 2x4 and now a 3x6. One of my best friends has one too.

Thanks JIM!
 
Jim was a pleasure to deal with, we worked out a design I was interested in and the workmanship was flawless.
The cases are of great quality and the leathers are exceptional.
I can see why that most owners will not be willing to part with their case unless some unusual circumstance comes along.

I own a 3X6 that Jim put a Kanji Symbol on the lid for me.
The tubes in mine were cut about 1-1/2 inches below the top so I can grab any of the cues with the lid open...Great way to go!
The case is used as my carry case and I love the combination of pockets to carry all the things we enjoy carrying.

Murnak's are awesome. I have a soft sided 3x6 that is plain, but I love it. I do have another case on order that I can't wait to see though.

MD can you post a picture of your case that he made ?
 
Thanks.

Thanks guys for all the nice things you've said. I have to say that working with you has made this, sometimes challenging work, quite worth doing.

Jim,
Nothing has been spoken that is not simply the truth.

I have been using my Murnak 3x6 for 4-5 years now. I carry it everywhere, and I simply throw it in the trunk...no special care taken with it. It has held up beautifully. It was masterfully hand-crafted here in the USA, and built to last a life-time. It will certainly out-last me.

Thanks,
Joe

If you want to get a Murnak case without the wait then Roy Malott at IndyQ Shop www.indyq.com is the only stocking Murnak dealer in the United States and probably in the world. In fact, I couldn't find any other Murnak dealer, if someone knows of one who stocks the cases for immediate sale please add them to the list.

Roy has a very nice selection of Murnak cases including some very special Brunswick replicas that are exceptional.

As Putt-Putt also mentioned, Roy has commissioned some of the finest Murnak custom cases ever made.

Get your Murnak masterpiece now without the long wait.

As a case maker I find Jim's creativity inspiring. I have dissected my Murnak case and find it to be well made on many aspects that I consider to be important in a cue case.

And Jim himself is a very nice person whom I am glad to call a colleague. I find it very good that he is stepping outside of case making to promote pool on other levels with his www.go4pool.com website and weekly shows.

Jim has been a breath of fresh air in cue case design and I have enjoyed being able to see all the great work he puts out.
 
MD can you post a picture of your case that he made ?

I'm no photog, but I'll try to get some pics of my Murnak & post them. I need to take some pics of my old Instroke LTD from the Barton/Collins era, too. It's a one of a kind.
 
I still regret

Not ordering that Vintage case when you first came to the forum. In fact, I need a case now. I was looking at the website trying to get some ideas. Need at least a 3/6 case.

BTW, I use one of your other products and I am very very happy with it.
