Thanks for sharing !! Its great to hear that there are still businesses/people who under promise and over deliver out there. I dont know how he did it but he took a well used/worn case and made it look almost new again, IN 1 DAY !!!! I will be looking at Justice cases when I am due for a new because of this story.

I may be wrong, but I’m pretty sure that Jack is no longer making new ones. He may just be doing restorations and repairs. If you want a new one, you’ll likely need to find someone who’s selling new old stock. My Justis case gets tons of compliments.

I've bought, sold and traded several, several "Jack Justis" case's, and you know....
I always regret letting them go

Best Wishes Tate , Very, very nice.

I love it . I love it more knowing the man's hands made it new again. New but better. Already has the patina.

I'd use mink oil on it if it were mine.

Thanks for the thread...my Justis case us still just fine, only a few scratches,,,patina from use. But nice to know he's there for help if needed.

Bought mine in '07. Why? John Barton was slamming them so much on these pages, I knew they had to be good...

Nothing like a little lipstick, elbow grease and years of knowledge. Mine gets a fresh coat of leather dressing every six months or so. Jack is one of the best case makers, period! Looks pretty sweet now!!

Not to be a dick and it looks great but what exactly happened? Cleaned and polished...looks beautiful. How was the tears fixed?

[Jack Justis]

Thanks Tate and everyone for the kind words

No way to fix a tear in leather that I'm aware of. I replaced the torn pocket.

He disassembled the case body, removed the pocket, made a completely new one with thicker leather, copying the case tooling and riveted it on, re-stretched the body of the case, cleaned the tubes and interior, touch up and polished the exterior, added a Justis engraved shoulder pad, installed a new bottom band for protection and added a gold plated tip tapper.

Did I mention he did this in less than a day?

Over the years Jack went with a thicker leather. Compare the before and after pictures of the pocket. It keeps its shape better and is more durable.

Wow!
When I saw it first, I though that you were sent just a new case. The time frame and the level of work is unbelievable.
These photos show again, that Justis is beyond normal standards!

That's a case that you and the maker can be proud of!

Best regards from Germany
