yes propane can get to forge welding temp but they are sometimes hard to get there .there is always a trade off .. I run bolth ... the propane is nice for long heats and ease of use ...coal is good for isolated heats and getting real hot (to burning) heats ...you want to make damascus ? are you using a power hammer or press??is coal smoke a problem in your neiborhood?? cost is something that changes with the wind...better is subjective its what works for you... if you can try bolth and decide which you like ... have fun
