I wanted one lunch box to rule them all. One that will last me a working life time and still be useable. $60 + $10 for S&H to the US is a lot. But it is cheaper than constantly replacing crappy plastic and fabric lunch boxes.

You've got a point but stealing a locked lunch box is about the same as stealing an unlocked lunch box except that it's a bit more trouble to get the food inside. On the other hand, I can't tell you how many times I've had the choice parts of my lunch stolen right out of the bag/box. Just the thought of some manimal pawing through my food disgusts me.
