Clubs with a metal point (5)
I believe the answer is:
irons
'clubs' is the definition.
(I know this)
'with a metal point' is the wordplay.
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'a metal' becomes 'iron' (iron is a metal).
'point' becomes 'S' (South).
'iron'+'s' is 'IRONS'.
(Other definitions for irons that I've seen before include "Presses clothes" , "Golf-clubs with metal heads" , "Metal-headed golfclubs" , "in which one is restrained" , "British actor" .)
