How cold out have you used your Fiskars axes ?

I now, I know, Fiskars axes again ! Done to death, but I was wondering about something lately. Is there any rough rating or temp. limit for the materials ? Has anyone used them consistently in bitterly cold weather ? What were the temps ? A national chain store up here keeps tempting me to buy more when they put them on sale. Lord knows I don't need more axes, but....you know. I have two X7 hatchets and really like them, real fly weights. And I keep an X25 in the vehicle for the lake. I might grab another X7 and maybe an 11 or 17. Most likely the 17. I know that the lifetime warranty basically negates breakage concerns, but I am curious as to the experiences of others here. Have you used them roughly through really cold winters ? Thanks.

I've used them heavily in below zero temps without issue.

I realized later (tired) that if they were made in Finland that the question was answered, along with the warranty. I guess that it was the skeptic in me that had to ask. Thanks anyway, F.T.B.:thumbup: I now have four x7's. One is in the winter travel tub, sharpened and edge oiled.
