    The case is impressive and appears tough. Likely could be used as a weapon if someone tried to jump you. How is it weight wise?

    It weighs 5 pounds.

    My laptop weighs 5 pounds. I have a video ill try to post here but my laptop just fits. I dont believe most 17 inches would fit but their is another size.
    My laptop size is thin but it has a large footprint so like an asus rog or alienware.
    All other 15.6 inches wpuld fit.
    Only the smallest 17 inchers would fit.
    Mine is 3 inches i recomend the 4 inch thick model to try and fit a thin cooler in it.
    So very light.

    I got it with security in mind to get a chain for inside my car.
    My last laptop was stolen from my car.

    I got mine for 50 dollars on ebay used.
    I would not spend 375 new. It is a name brand sort of thing.

    Here is my video the case is almost custom fit

    As you can see mine is an older model. The new one has 2 external clasps but mine has one internal one.
    The new design is better. But the old design has stiff leather pockets.
    Essentially the same thing.
