Who in this thread made the claim that these are the first ever copper color finish irons?Even still who did it first? I think its cool that Cobra is doing it but let's not kid ourselves here.

Was mizuno's finish PVD or copper plating because this is first time I've seen a copper pvd finish on any iron.Strange. By that logic, neither did Mizuno.
No sir. They weren’t even planning on releasing them until they put a teaser on social to show “layers of feel” and fans chimed in. They are raw and not very durable.Was mizuno's finish PVD or copper plating because this is first time I've seen a copper pvd finish on any iron.
Cobras 'standard' is already a degree upright from most other manufacturers.Well, I play 1 degree upright. They only have 2 degree upright, standard, or 2 degree flat lie. 2 degree upright means fore left. ... I have to pass. They look great, though.

Do you not like finish options or color choices in other clubs too? Or just copper?Not a fan. Be was used by Ping (from Naval ship propellors at first) cause it was dense and could be molded into perimeter weighting easily and was picked primarily for technology. Copper finish IMO adds nothing to improve club performance except an excessive price point for Cobra.
Forgot about that special release

I guess that is my question and am genuinely curious. What is the gimmick? Using a poor analogy isn’t it similar to having choice of color cars, shirts, etc?Personally prefer silver finish in irons but to each its own. This one seems like a gimmick but will probably sell.

Most companies offer wedges in different finishes. Putters in different finishes, irons as well and of course some companies even allow you options of color choices in drivers.
Totally agree. These are really nice looking clubs and I expect to sell quickly to those looking at them.This Copper finish by Cobra is just stunning. These will sell like hotcakes IMO
No one is claiming they enhance performance.Just not a fan. Convince me they actually improve performance? One might argue copper might give a slightly softer potential feel but I prefer the classic color of most irons. Again to each his own and they will likely sell.
An issue in past with some plated or other color irons that were played is some finishes wore quickly. Don’t have enough info on these to get into that part.
They will wear. Discussed in the article but I dont think anybody is claiming performance benefits are they? It’s an aesthetic choice just as the examples mentioned. Just like some prefer dark be chrome or satin vs oil can. What is the gimmick though, I think I’m missing it?Just not a fan. Convince me they actually improve performance?
