Two Questions:
1.) How well would these fit on Scarpa boots (the Mont Blancs in particular)
2.) What style of binding would be recommended for general winter mountaineering with a few pitches of ice?
Thanks.

These will work well with the Mont Blanc, just get the lever wire model. I have't ice climbed with this specific model, but I have with other similar Petzl crampons. They work well. You might also check out the Black Diamond Sabertooth. They have horizontal front points, but climb ice just fine. If you want a dedicated ice climber, you can also check out the Petzl Dartwin, or Black Diamond Cyborg (my personal favorite vertical ice crampon).
