Here's what other sites are saying:

From Backcountry.com:
"The Black Diamond Express Ice Screws' unique taper reduces ice fracturing and eases placements. A large crank knob takes less fine motor skills to use than a small one, so you can place the Express Ice Screw when you're pumped like crazy and really need it. Black Diamond uses a stainless steel hanger to eliminate rusting and decrease sun-induced melt-out. Two carabiner holes make sketchy hanging belays easy to set up."

From Oregon Mountain Community:
"The Black Diamond Express Ice Screw is the easiest and fastest placing ice screws on the planet, the Express ice screws have a quicker bite than a pissed- off pit bull thanks to their sublime tooth geometry. The Express screws feature a tapered tube where the teeth cut a hole just larger than the tube itself, for less friction and faster placements. The foldable speed-drive knobs are color-coded for quick length identification and offer uninterrupted 360-degree motion. Stainless steel hangers with secondary clip-in points for belay organization are lighter than previous models, reduce melt-out on sunny routes and won’t rust. Express ice screws are built in five lengths to accommodate a variety of ice conditions. CE-certified. Patented. Which Ice Screw is right for you? Please allow an extra day or two for delivery on this item."

From Moosejaw:
"Free Shipping. Black Diamond Turbo Express Ice Screws (Fall 2009) Without question, the Turbo Express Ice Screws by Black Diamond are the easiest and fastest placing ice screws to ever sink their way into ice. This year we improved our renowned Express by redesigning the tooth geometry for easier starts, adding larger crank knobs that are easier to grab and augmenting the hanger with a second clip-in point for belay organization. Quick to bite and easy to crank in, the Express screw features a tapered tube where the teeth cut a hole just larger than the tube itself, for less friction and faster placements. The foldable speed-drive knob is color-coded for quick length identification and offers uninterrupted 360-degree motion. New stainless steel hangers are lighter than previous models, won't rust and reduce melt-out on sunny routes. The Express is built in five lengths to accommodate a variety of ice conditions. All sizes of screws are now CE-certified. Patented."
