Used in canon:

   qIvo'rIt pagh'e'
   K'Vort Class Pagh. (S7 title)

   qIvo'rIt toQDuj 'oH tlhIngan wo' Duj pagh'e'.  ra' qarghan HoD.

   The Imperial Klingon Vessel "Pagh" is a K'Vort-class Bird-of-Prey
   under the command of Captain Kargan. It has the best weapons and
   some of the finest warriors in the Klingon fleet.  (S7 text)

   Segh:  bI'rel tlharghDuj  (qIvo'rIt may'Duj mach)
   Model: B'rel Scout (smaller version of a K'vort Class cruiser) KBoP

N.B. the K'Vort-class is the larger of the two types of Bird-of-Prey 
{toQDuj}; the smaller version is the 12-man B'Rel-class {bI'rel}.

K'Vada's BoP "Kruge" (TNG "Unification I-II") and Martok's ship, the 
"Rotarran" (DS9 "Sons and Daughters"), were probably K'Vort-class vessels 
as well.

Anyone know of any others, particularly those we've seen inside of?
