Briefcases can be of three kinds:
Portfolio: a handle-less case to be carried in the hand or under the arm.
Folio case: a portfolio with a retractable handle.
Attache' case: "a box-style case made of leather (occasionally aluminium), scrunched over a hinged frame that opens into two compartments. It was traditionally carried by an attache', a diplomatic officer attached to an embassy or consulate officially assigned to serve in a particular capacity. In recent years, leather pouches (usually slightly larger the size of standard paper, 8.5 x 11) with a zipper sealed compartment has been referred to as attache''s or poche document holders."
