How is that holding up for you? I went through about 5 in 7 years and finally stopped carrying the case and the razor. In my experience, the case litterally fell apart. The leather (or fake lather) covering would peel off leaving cardboard. The cardboard would then get damp and the case was no more. I've also had the neck of 2 of the razors break. This left the blade spinning around when I tried to shave. Very disappointing as I paid around $200 for the case if I recall correctly. I bought 3 and Nieman Marcus replaced 2.
