Update: yes ! They do make my hands smell like am using metal! But - they have not changed color. I don't smell any odor. The regular size, however, are heavier. It doesn't seem to bother my hands but I will be looking for this and report back if it happens. I would like if they had a sharper point.

I have been using the copper Lyyke needles for about a month and haven’t had any issues. I bought the shorties and I’ve found that they are darkening while I’m using them on a narrow neckerchief that I’m knitting. However, nothing is transferring to the yarn. On a larger project, the surface of the needles is covered by the fabric that I’m knitting and they’re not darkening. As far as polishing, there is simply a cloth that you use to rub the needles. Not time consuming, and I haven’t found a need to use it yet. I don’t notice the weight, maybe because they’re shorties? I can smell a metal odor when I hold them up to my nose, but not when they’re down at my lap while knitting. I did notice that they’re not as smooth as other metal needles that I own, but that isn’t interfering with my knitting, it’s just an observation. The swivel cord is great!
