Is it wrong for non Greeks to use a komboloi? Also is it still common or only with old men?
You mean like as in cultural appropriation? Dude, you do whatever you like - most likely people will find it appealing. To answer your other question, it is mainly old people that use it nowadays, yes.
The koboloi is tailor made to someone’s dna, which obviously needs to be Greek. If a foreigner tries to use one, his dick will fall off.
If a non Greek person uses komboloi it will wrap around their neck and choke them to death. So please for your own safety don’t use them, only Greeks can tame komboloi.

Help us out here. Why would it be wrong?
Are we missing something?
Also is it still common or only with old men?
Yes.
Cultural appropriation is strictly a Western Europe/US issue. Literally nobody east of Austria gives a shit. If anything is offensive about all this, is that you’d think we’d be offended.
As for komboloi in particular, it’s basically an old-school fidget spinner. It is mostly used by old men, but not for any cultural or traditional reason.
No it is not wrong, also it used by youngs too, also if you like it used it, dont take under consideration ifmant people use komboloi

Someone arrest this vile criminal!
You can use it but It won’t work if you re not Greek. Sorry. Try mpegleri maybe.
Οnly Chads can use this. With great komboloi comes great flex.
Go for it, my friend
Nah bro who cares about this cultural appropriation bullshit anyway? As long as you want it and can afford something, get it. Also yes I only see old ppl using them but they look nice so I might get one as well.
Check begleri out, more people use them, they are smaller and more practical.
No Greek will be offended cause you used a komboloi, but also it’s unlikely you will find young people using them.
This shit only maters in America here you can do whatever you want as long as you don’t cus on someone’s mother
I use a komboloi and I’m middle aged. But I’ve been using one since I was in my twenties. A lot of Greeks still use one. They’re the old school fidget spinners.
Cultural apporpriation is an american invention. Rest of the world doesnt give a fuck
I’m 18 and use it, no problem here
I am 22 years old and I use one while chilling at home
Δεν μπορούν να το χρησιμοποιήσουν άνθρωποι που δεν είναι Έλληνες;
The kompoloi is a mentality. I use my keys and keychain as one to have something to do with my hands :D. haha to answer your question no one would consider this appropriation, go for it. But yes to have a dedicated kompoloi is an old man thing
