Is it true that metal feels colder than wood at the same temperature?
Yes. Multiple reference and textbook sources state that metal feels colder than wood at the same temperature, attributing it to metal's higher thermal conductivity drawing heat from the hand faster. A 2019 study also confirms metal and wood evoke different thermal sensations at room temperature.
