Forge: The dictionary even states that it is a forge.

A Blacksmith heats the metal in a forge.

It's DEFINITELY called a forge.

A forge is an open-top fire where metal is heated for smithing or smelting.

A furnace is a closed piece of equipment. It is used for many things, like heating water, fireing pottery, extracting ores, etc.

A Blacksmith does not usually use a furnace, and metal to be smithed is always heated in a forge.
