A briefcase includes a body portion defining a receptacle and having an open top, a flap formed of a pliable material and extending over the open top for closing the same, a handle, and an anchor at each end of the handle secures the handle to the flap. A back-up plate is mounted in the flap and extends over substantially the entire area thereof and is formed of a metallic material which is relatively stiffer than the material forming the flap. The anchors include a fastener extending through the flap and the back-up plate for fastening the handle to the back-up plate for supporting the case.
