I had a couple of Spyderco Bill Moran's (FB01 and FB02) full convex ground by Tom Krein a while ago before he stopped doing regrinds. Here are some pics:
Spyderco FB01 Featherweight
Spyderco FB02 Drop Point
Cutting performance was improved over stock.
***Edited to include***
Both were thin to begin with so a convex micro bevel was also added to improve edge stability from the zero grind.
