Here's what other sites are saying:

From Oregon Mountain Community:
"The Black Diamond Sabretooth Pro and Clip Crampons offer high performance for mixed masters, whether you’re climbing a heady thin pillar or crossing a sketchy crevassed glacier. Their horizontal frontpoints pierce hard ice and edge amazingly well on rock. With secondary points that provide solid stability in mushy ice or snow, the Sabretooths’ serrated teeth offer maximum bite when pulling onto ledges or ice blobs. Our Clip version sports a flexible toe strap that is designed to work on boots without a front toe welt. With a one-size-fits-all design that makes them a sure fit on nearly any boot, the Sabretooths are our most versatile crampons for snow, ice and mixed terrain. One size fits all (US men’s 4-12/Euro men’s 34-46).Black Diamond Sabretooth Features: Horizontal frontpoints penetrate hard ice, edge well on rock.Secondary points provide stability in soft snow.Serrated teeth for better climbing performance.Clip version offers flexible, dual-density toe strap.Weight 968 g, 2 lb 2 oz (Clip) Size(s) One size fits all (4-12 men's)"

From Backcountry.com:
"With 14 vicious fangs that tear up everything from vertical water ice to mixed alpine climbs, the Black Diamond Sabretooth Pro Crampon is the all-around favorite for versatile winter performance. With a new stainless steel design, the Sabretooth now features lower weight, higher durability, as well as added protection from rust and snow balling. The step-in attachment system clamps securely onto technical mountain boots with front and rear welts, and a low-profile micro-adjustment system helps you dial in the perfect fit."

From Altrec Outdoors:
"The most versatile, all-around crampon made, the Black Diamond Sabretooth Pro Crampon is now lighter weight and has been re-engineered with durable, rust-resistant stainless steel. Featuring horizontal frontpoints, the Sabretooth Pro provides stability in snow, will penetrate alpine ice, run up waterfall ice and hold rock edges securely. Secondary points create a stable platform with shear resistance for control in mushy conditions; serrated sub-points grab and hold when you're rocking over your feet."

"Awesome crampon. Stiff enough to front-point in, but still enough flex for walking on a glacier. The powder coating comes off if you use them on rock, so just be sure to rub WD-40 on them after each climb(prevents rust.) Overall, great crampon for when you will be doing glacier, vertical rock and ice all in the same climb."
