thanks to everyone for their input. this is a very helpful forum.
not only do I like the color of copper, but I like the way it feels when you touch it better than the way brass feels. I can't really pinpoint what it is about it, perhaps just a preference.
I also know that at one point several years ago I became acquainted with lots of Craftsman-style metal work and the predominant metal in that genre is copper. Hammered copper to be specific, but you do see lots of plain copper there as well.
the relatively rarity of copper in the genre of modern production folders (at least American ones) has caused me to see a real value is working with it, if for no other reason than the uniqueness of it.
