Qatar Airways - 1 litre empty stainless steel water bottle through the security checkpoint
score:7
The material doesn't matter. Neither does the airline.
Empty canisters are fine. The regulations are about liquids not things that might or might not hold a liquid. Make sure it's empty. Wipe it. A vindictive security person might try to mess with you otherwise.

Security checkpoints aren't run by the airlines: it's national regulations that matter, not any airline's rules.
I have never had any problem taking an empty metal water bottle through the security checkpoint at any airport I've been to (Europe, including Italy, US, Canada, Japan). Sometimes they ask if there's anything in it. Once, it was swabbed.
However, you may have problems if the bottle is insulated: I've seen signs at airports (can't remember where, sorry) saying that vacuum flasks can't be taken through security, presumably because the screeners can't tell if you've secreted something in the insulation cavity.
However, as mentioned in the comments, it's better to leave at home anything that you can't afford to lose while travelling.
