I remember this one came out back when Buck was in El Cajon, CA. I lived in Sab Diego at the time. They also made one with a gut hook blade. Any idea of what model this one is?

Looks like a CrossLock but I don’t know the model number.

Thanks Rick T.
I went a Law Enforcement trade show in San Diego with a friend that was a SDPD officer in the 90's and Buck was there with a proto-type of this knife with and extra a gut-hook blade for "cutting flex-cuffs" so I got to see it before it was ever released. I just wish I could have gotten ahold of one of those proto-types
back then.

GSPTOPDOG,
That is a Buck 180 Crosslock. I've got one just like it with the gold buckcote. Look at the liner lock release...it should have a '180' stamped on it.
PS: Here's one with the Buckcote on it with the gut hook. Made in 94. This is a GREAT price for one that is mint. These are hard to find in this type of condition. And, you only sharpen it on one side.

My latest Buck was a bomb that about blew my socks off. Cuz (Colonel26) dropped it inside my parameter today. She's a Buck 726 Mini Spitfire and she's a whale of a fine knife. Glad to have her.

Buck Liberty 825. That little copper inlay is an actual piece of the Statue of Liberty from the 1984-1986 restoration project. Nothing extraordinary but kinda neat to have.

Schoomzer...GREAT call on picking that Akonua up for that price. You saved yourself $200.00 + on that one.
