Completely Solid
No matter what the objective (glacier slog, snow, ice, mixed, etc...) these have always preformed great. Easily adjustable from summer to winter boots, and the newmatic binding has yet to loosen during a climb. A+

Antibott
Fit great to my Scrapa Inverno's. I had some balling issues with a sticky layer of snow on top of the ice. With the Antibott devices attached, those days are gone. Use has only been on Ecuador's mountains so no steep climbing. Recommend WD-40 or something similar to reduce rust where Antibott is attached.

New-Matic
I used these during a Mount Rainier summit climb, and they worked great. I cannot say enough good things about these crampons.

best
if i was forced to have only one crampon it would be these. they do everything well. they aren't the best at EVERYTHING but like I said they do WELL with everything. they are bomber, adjust easily and have never failed me. if all 12 point crampons were to get into a fight, i'm almost positive the g12's would destroy all others.

Love these crampons. The steel is fantastic and the anti-bott devices work super

Great Crampons
I echo what everyone one else has said, they are great for everything including ice climbing. I've had mine for years, very durable.

Light and versatile
With these crampons I've been to the Alps for five summer seasons now, and they are ideally suited for all I've done there. They are light, which is something I really look for in my gear, for I have to carry it around.
I must say, they are not my first choice for ice climbing or steep alpine ascents - I feel that their 'bite' isn't as good as the Black Diamond Sabretooth.

Benchmark crampons
I consider them benchmark crampons for general mountaineering. Tough as nails, easy to put on, very stable when fit right.
I got the New Classic model, but thinking of converting them to Newmatic (the heel clip is available as a spare part)

Very reliable
I have had my Grivel G12's for over 7-1/2 years now, and they are still very good. I opted for the slightly heavier/more durable variation rather than the ultralight aluminum version.
