Unlike a quote from a film or game, this anvil sound is a general-purpose workshop effect rather than a clip tied to one famous scene. Similar metallic strikes have long been used in film, television and games to sell the weight of forged metal, and the same ringing tone now circulates widely as a short downloadable effect for creators. Its continued use comes from its clarity: listeners instantly recognise the sound of a forge, even without seeing one, so it works as shorthand for hard work, strength and old-fashioned craftsmanship.
