So its not so much how do forges melt metals, so much as How do forges melt steel and transport the molten steel without melting the container containing the steel as well. This part has always nagged me in the back of my head and I always forget to find out how this is possible.

You make it out of something other than metal. Carbon and ceramic are good options for parts of a forge. These materials are way more heat resistant than metal.

These materials are produced by a method other than forging so it doesn’t require anything to be even more heat resistant.
