[mseifert]

I saw in a thread that someone had this case viewtopic.php?f=3&t=55195&p=403792&hilit=Sherman+%26+Case#p403792

but could find any other reviews on it .. I am a bot rough on my gear and was wondering if anyone had one of these and could comment on the durability..

May I recommend a nice soft leather case from Peterson? they are in New York State.

I've had mine for at least 6 years, no issues yet.

I also have an HPC zip up case, but prefer the Peterson roll up/bi-fold.

+ 1 all the way. I've got 2 Peterson's tri-folds, and I feel sure they'll outlive me Plus, they smell nice.

[Squelchtone]

Plus, they smell nice.

Glad I'm not the only one =)

[mseifert]

Well since they smell nice.. Im sold..

While the peterson case is sexy and smells nice and leathery, and is comfortable to carry,
the sherman case is very tough .
It is almost like a book, and survives a tool box or bag or whatever very well, the sides are quite stiff
and protect the tools well.
I carry the peterson bifold the most though.

I have no opinion on the other, as I've never used them.
But I own the sherman and I couldn't be happier with it.
I fit all kinds of weird stuff in it. Jigglers, try out keys, warded picks, helluva big auto tension wrench. Just before buying it, I was told I wouldn't be able to fit everything in there. Was I wrong, it all fits nicely!

The case is only $13.00 so I think I will order it .. My wife is always asking me about Xmas gifts.. So I will ask Santa for the Peterson case plus TW and Picks..

Most locksmiths use the HPC cases. I use this one because it is small plus it has a zipper to prevent picks from falling out.

They also make a bigger one but it isn't practical for locksmiths but might be for serious hobbyists with a lot of picks.

My new case showed up today .. Lots of pockets and seems very durable ..

Sweet, the right hand side (under the flap) has a pocket that can hold a tubular pick too.
You can carry a small workbench worth of tools in those.
I have the competition case too, very handy.

[mseifert]

now I just need to make myself enough picks to fill it up ..

Mine holds everything but the kitchen sink , with room to spare , but has a pocket the perfect size for a Peterson plug spinner .

It fits in the side pocket of most cargo/combat pants pockets .
