If you are trying to forge something with 13% chromium in it you will have to go hot maybe up to a bright orange yellow to yellow to get the steel to move. The only problem is that if you get the steel too hot it might start crumbling on you like Feta cheese. A steel like that is not for the faint of heart or the inexperienced.
