Do folks find raw copper practical to carry? I’m interested in the Convoy T3 copper because (I think) it’s coated so no patina would develop. But I understand the metal changing is desirable to some.

Practicality depends on your preference. It's heavy, some people say it stinks. But scratches don't make it look ugly and it ages nicely with time.

Thanks. Good point about scratches - also makes me think that when the T3 coating scratches the metal could be exposed, leading to patina in those spots only.
