I received these two beautiful specimen almost two weeks ago, but being so busy I haven't been able to take photos. Today I managed to hike out to the public park nearby, set everything up, and my camera died on me. So I had to use the cell phone, for which I have lost the sync cable, but rummaging through the pile of crap on my desk I found an old Bluetooth dongle... anyway, two hours later, and about a fortnight too late, here are the crappy images, I wish I could have done better

KFU and GH collaboration
it's a dream to hold, the blade looks small but is actually a good size. It has superb ergonomics, no in-hand photos but the thumb locks right onto the little depression on the spine - very nice to handle
the sheath is beyond words, it is a two tone leather piece which the knife actually clicks into, amazing, that's what it is

you cannot see the hamon line, or the exquisite details, but this thing is a jewel. I was telling Chris I would be afraid to use it, lest I should scratch it, but then I said what the hell, Bill would be insulted, so I batoned it lightly into a log, then went about the chopped off finger sized branches, went through them as if they weren't even there. Heck I could have taken down the tree, but it is a public park, and I didn't want to risk it. Came with Bill's own sheath

And lest I should forget to mention - these rigs were gifts from Chris & GriffinHawks and Bill, to me, a broke non-customer forumite they have never met, and they all came with first class fit and finish. Words can't describe how thankful and happy I am.

You're welcome. I personally never use a tripod, even when using my light box. Too cumbersome for me. I just take tons of shots, and pick out the good ones. I've really learned how to control my steadiness. I even hold my breath sometimes.
