An effect of heating metals to forging temperatures is crystal growth 
so it unlikely to be easily forged without ruining its amorphous 
properties. Theses extreme materials typically have very rigorous 
requirements for time and temperature in processing them if they are 
to keep their properties. Not probably going to be easily dealt with 
in your coal forge
