clank
Iron striking iron
Clank is a sharp metallic sound, like metal striking metal: The clank of chains echoed through the dungeon.
The verb describes making or moving with such sounds: The radiator clanked all night, Armor clanked as the knights assembled.
Clank suggests something heavier and more resonant than clink, less sustained than clang.
