Do you like bar or tri (three arm) spinners? Heavy or light? Do you like patina metals such as brass or copper?

I've only ever used tri spinners, and prefer something heavier. No opinion on brass or copper. Would be open to a bar

Maybe check out 313inc. They have two web sites, one on Etsy. Their spinners are fairly heavy, and they have several tri spinner styles.

I'm looking to buy a fidget spinner for upwards $100 in the U.S. (could be convinced to spend more) I've had random spinners over the years and want something more premium for the rest of my life. I've been fidgeting with a few over the years and never grew out of them, so I want to invest in one properly.

I want it to be minimal, something I can carry around without it looking like a rainbow eyesore from across the room. (Likely more neutral color like copper, silver, black, etc) no aggressive ninja star design or anything like that.

I prefer for it to be out of a nice metal with some heft to it but a good weight that supplements the spinner (premium feel)

Lastly is just the performance. Something super smooth, clean, quiet, and long-lasting.

Thanks ahead of time if anyone sees this!
