attache case

Slim professional briefcase

An attaché case is a slim, rigid briefcase with a hinged lid, typically leather or metal, designed to carry documents and small items.

The name comes from diplomatic attachés who carried such cases.

Unlike soft briefcases, an attaché case opens flat like a clamshell: He snapped open his attaché case and spread the contracts across the table.
