Adding gear made of copper to your EDC is a great way to add luster to your loadout. Like a good pair of leather boots, copper only gets better with time and use, developing a personalized patina that tells the story of your experiences. As one of the denser tool materials, it adds a nice heft to your gear, giving a solid feel when used. Copper's material properties allow better heat dissipation for tools like flashlights or electronics, keeping them cool and safe from damage while running. Needless to say, it's also one of the most beautiful and unique metals you can find on everyday items.



We've put together ten of the coolest copper products on the market, so check out our list below to find one to color up your carry.

Maratac Copper CR123 Flashlight (pictured Left)

An EDC classic with thick, beefy knurling and notches that work well with copper's heavier weight. Its twist activation will help develop interesting patterns in the patina over time.

The TechLiner's magnetic cap sets it apart from other machined pens. Copper construction with a well-worn patina will help it stand out even more over time.
