    I would like some patina on the copper, but not turn green. In an outside environment it takes 5 years plus to get to green, so I have plenty of time.

    I'm thinking that with regular usage that the handling with the oils from your hands would create a patina but would also keep the 'Green' away, but what do I know

    Sounds good Roy, makes sense I will make sure to rub them when I use the razor.
