Infrared Burner

Ok, crazy question. Brand new noob here and am looking at a very simple heat treating setup before I make an investment. Here's my question, I have a grill with an infrared burner that is advertised as heating up to 1800 degrees. Could this be used as a primitive forge ? I'm not expecting any great results, but I just want to make a couple of 6" lawn mower blade test knives to get a feel for the process.

Thanks, please be gentle!
