The default application bar styles use the font Segoe UI Symbol for it's icons, you can use the program Character Map installed with Windows to browse the icons it provides.

As well as Metro Studio that eibhrum mentioned you can find more at the Noun Project and the Xaml Project.

Someone compiled a list of built-in appbar icons here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/adamkinney/6952800759/sizes/o/in/photostream/
