If i use two or more lighters to heat an iron spoon, will it melt?

Question

If i start heating an iron spoon with one lighter and i start adding more lighters to that "heating system", can the temperature increase so high that it would melt the spoon ?

Butane lighters claim a flame temperature of 1430C. Iron melts at 1538C. No chance, however many lighters you use.
