Not positive but I think it's a Model 7 Fisherman/Hunter (center of this photo.) And the one on the far right I think is a Model 26 Pathfinder with a stag center.
What does your old style 8 look like?

Now someone will have to ask what multi-tool they like to carry around!

I carried a buck bird knife in my vest for 25+ yrs. I never used it . I finally donated it to Mr. Hall's collection.

I’ve still got a Buck around here somewhere only thing I ever used it for was to scrape my teeth a bit .

I haven’t picked/gutted a bird in about 40 years , everything dove quail partridge pheasants and ducks have the breasts popped out and the remainder discarded for the local fox population .

Does anyone actually use the gut hook when cleaning birds?
Whoops! Sorry to duplicate Garry's post. Great minds think alike

Have carried a Case bird knife in my vest for 25 years and never used the hook. Use the knife blade to breast out. Next bird i got to remember to try it.

I have a Buck bird knife and I hate to admit that I don't know how a gut hook should be used.

Push it in and pull it out. On the South end of a north bound bird.
