I just saw that case the other day. Gorgeous but a bit pricey at around 100
Mine is about five years old, dark green leather with a polished wood top (rosewood, I think)...beautiful case, but I only paid around $50 for it back then. Picked it up in a local Tinder Box store as a Christmas present for myself.

It does usually attract comments.

While obviously not airtight, when you close it, it "whooshes" the air out with a pretty distinct sound.

The Atoll cases are excellent quality. I have 1 of the Opus X Atoll Cases. The Xikars are an excellent quality knockoff of the Atoll. The Envoy is a sturdier case, but it takes a while to get rid of that strong leather/glue smell.

yup, they do have the sandwich construction. Its a very classy case. The Opus case is beautiful. When I carry the Opus case, I am careful with it, so sturdiness is not that important. If I want to step on it, I bring my Ciguard Caddy. I can step on it, or lose the damn thing, and it wont matter too much.

Sure! Excellent BBQ! They have great ribs. Only wish they did brisket. I only live about 3 miles from them.
Looks like you guys have to get together for a smoke when he goes to visit the son!

Ron, got my sheet and have already tried the strip in my Xikar case. Worked great. I'll be cutting some panels for my caddies soon. Thanks again.

the sheets work just like the heartfelt beads because they are made from the heartfelt beads. they will work, but you will get more for your $ using beads. if you want the sheets, give me a shout. i will give you a nice deal
