I posted this reply in another thread that was asking about the quality of the Liberty Mountain (Olicamp) matchcase. I thought I would post my reply here as well...

For what it's worth, don't waste your time on any other matchcase except the one from K&M. I'm a matchcase freak who has considered all of them and the K&M is by far the best on the market. The quality and workmanship is outstanding for the price. The design is simple and 100% reliable. The case body is machined from solid bar stock. And it's made is the USA!

I have two matchcases. One in brass which is heavy, but absolutely gorgeous and one in plain, brushed aluminum (not anodized) which is light, but still very tough. The plain aluminum matchcase had to be special ordered.

My brass matchcase is several years old and has a luminous Brunton compass. My new aluminum matchcase has a beautiful, blue faced, non-luminous Suunto compass. Both are very high quality and accurate.

K&M is now using O.D. military spec cord which is tighter woven than the old cord and doesn't seem to snag as easy on the case knurling.

If you order from their website the price is $19.00 plus $4.05 shipping. If you give Keith a call @ 208-826-3447 and order direct, the price is $15.00 plus $4.05 shipping. Not sure why.

Trust me, you can't go wrong with a K&M Matchcase!

BTW, Keith and Marge Lunders are the owners and you couldn't ask for nicer people to deal with. Enjoy the experience.

Oh, and for the record, I do not get paid commission. I'm just a very satisfied customer. :D
 
Yeah TAH, they told me you told them to be expecting a call from some guy in North Carolina. Do you live next door to Keith or something?:D
Got a green one coming, nice folks.
 
i've had one of the k&m cases for years, it's built like a tank and the compass is pretty handy. funny thing is while hunting i still carry my zippo. later,ahgar
 
Hmm , never heard of these, they are pretty nice , especially the brass one of which I think I am going to have to buy.
I love the fact that it comes with a quality compass as well.
Good thread TAH :thumbup:

Also , nice link there Maximus :)
 
Please note:

Keith asked me to relay to everyone that he and his family will be on vacation from September 8th until the first part of October. Also, the website may shut down during this period. He said to please check back in October.


Hi dig-it,

I was on the phone with Keith when I saw your first post. I told him, "You may be getting a call from North Carolina soon." :D He couldn't believe it!

Enjoy your matchcase! :thumbup:
 
it's good to see a mom and pop business do well. i don't think you could find a better match case. later, ahgar
 
I agree, ahgar. After all the headaches Keith has been through in obtaining compasses and having other companies steal his idea, it's amazing he hasn't thrown in the towel.

So what does that mean for my order I placed last night???
 
When I called Keith and ordered over the phone, my matchcase was shipped the same day. If you went through the website, you might want to use the email address found in the "Return Policy" and confirm that it was or will be shipped before September 8th.
