Does anyone know if these work well with the Millet Everest GTX boot or can recommend an alternative?

Depends on what you want to use these for. If you want a technical ice climbing crampon, I would go with the Grivel G14. If you want a do it all, multipurpose crampon, these are great as well as the petzl sarkens and Grivel G14. The Grivel G14 will be to technical for general mountaineering. Ive used these for for technical mountaineering and steep ice. I prefer these for technical mountaineering, and Grivel rambos or Grivel G14s for technical ice. If you want these for general mountaineering, theyre overkill and I think youll want less points which will mean less to trip on/catch on.

Yes, this crampon will work. Another alternative is the Grivel G12. The Sabretooth will walk better because of the tooth profile, but the G12's secondary front points will engage far more efficiently and easily than the sabretooth's.
