I also got the Schwalbe Marathon Winter 700x35 and used them for the first time this morning, to deal with the melt of snow banks that refreezes overnight and creates black ice. What an improvement over the Schwalbe 700x32 slicks, and the sound of Rice Crispies (or sizzling bacon) is mesmerizing.
After mounting them I saw blood on the sidewall, and then noticed that I cut my hands in three places just mounting them. Weapons indeed!
