Yes. All the people in the thread are acting like it's some kind of made-up object. The original artist who made the image didn't seem to know about that heated hammers are used in smithing.

Traditionally the main hammers are placed close to the forge when in a smithing session. The point of this is to heat it up, and actively work the steel with a heated hammer.

What happens if the hammer isn't heated up is that a) the steel loses its forging heat faster (making it harder to forge) b) the surface of the steel is cooled faster than the inner parts of the steel (which can result in cracking, and c) a cold hammer is actually slightly too hard to work the steel.

Some smiths even preheat their anvils, as most of the heat loss is through there, but it takes a lot of energy to heat it up and then keep it warm. The excess heat also makes the anvil too soft, as it's made of inferior steel (compared to hammers). So most smiths just heat their hammers instead.

In the past only the heat from forges/smaller fires was used to heat hammers (and anvils), but later developments allows smiths to use electric heating pads for hammers as well as electric resistors inside both hammers (like in OP's pic) and inside the actual anvils.

I'm a blacksmith by profession and I prefer to use both heated hammers as well as heated anvils to extend the time the steel has forging heat, and to prevent cracking. It's much easier to focus on the work, and getting each stroke exactly right, once you have a bit extra time. Having both a heated anvil + hammers gives you 10-15 seconds extra to work each piece of steel.
