metals feel colder or hotter to the touch than other materials at the same temperature because they're good thermal conductors. This means they easily transfer heat to colder objects or absorb heat from warmer objects. ... Thermal insulators like plastic and wood don't transfer heat as easily.

Metal feels colder than wood if they're both at room temperature because metal conducts heat much better than wood does. Since your hand is hotter than room temperature, both the metal and the wood conduct heat away from it.
