Steel was the preferred material for a knight, followed by iron. Bronze would be used for decoration or if they couldn't afford the steel. Also, the most prestigious knights used silver.

Metal or steal, depending on how rich the owner was or depending on what the blacksmith thought was better for the thing that the owner was going to use it for.

Where is the golden armor on Club Penguin?

I believe only the members got it on that Medieval party quest last year. Only members have it. Each year there is a medieval party, and there is a quest, and at the end of the quest (when you finish all the games in the quest successfully) there is a prize-and the prize was the golden armour. So currently you cannot get the golden armour on club penguin, and besides, even if it IS the medieval party right now, unless you are a member you cannot get it. And if you are even a member, you need to finish the quest in order to get the golden armour. I hope I have been some help. =)
