Sebenza Graphics That Are "Deep"?

Been watching Sebenzas for years but never watched the ones with graphics or etchings too closely. Recently, I noticed there are some with "deeper" designs etched more deeply into the scales. For example "Think Twice Code", the PDW/SPD "Lines" and Wilson Combat "Starbenza". There's overall more material removed to make the pattern, and they tend to be larger designs with no coloring. They also tend to have names rather than the generic "CGG" or "UG" on the COA. I kinda dig these. "Doppler" and "Raindrop" are along the same vein, but pretty shallow in depth of pattern. Been wondering if there are any other "deep" grind designs out there I'm not aware of? Anyone?
 
The REC exclusive Spartan CGG Sebenza is one of my favorites. They state it’s the model that requires the most laser time of all Sebenzas.

I bought it from a member here years ago. As I recall, he had a new 21 Insingo and swapped out the scale from another new knife he owned. It's a lovely little knife and the only "small" I've owned.

I've considered doing some mixing of the show side a few times myself. CRK has been doing Insingos with wood in the 31's which has been tempting me to play mix and match with my 21's. Been considering mixing up a Box Elder Burl Large 21 Insingo but the donors are still new so I hesitate to do it.
 
I suppose the current Forever Flag might qualify? I haven’t handled one.
 
Bought a scale for my cats and thought "I wonder what my Seb's weigh?" A logic leap in my mind at least!

Turns out my large micrata Insingo 21 weighs about 1-2 gram less than a large PDW 31. I know, the 21 has a hole in it, but that got me to thinking... They mill out the inlay pockets. Maybe the winner of most removed material (overall, not counting the hole) would be an annual ie: a 31 inlay? Not part of the "graphic" design, I know; more along the lines of the Spartan graphic removing a lot of material in general. Never seen an annual or 31 without a scale inlay mounted, so no idea how much they take out to mount them.

Carbon fiber 31 would be a candidate.
