What's this one for  

[nuphoria]

I know, I know.

It's a Cigar knife. 6.32 08.07 (I cheated a bit  , looked in the catalogue  )

From The Swiss Army Knife Owner's Manual.   I like the leather background.
The left three are Wenger, the others Victorinox.
Handles of black fiber, red fiber, horn, bakelite?, black celluloid, wood.

This one I don't understand. Which one should we guess the name or use? Or all of them?

I guess this photo is just to show a lot of workers knives, and is not a quiz.

Here's a weird one from Joseph Rodgers & Sons... Two identical saws

[Styerman]

It's a leatherworkers Round knife , the Head knife is somewhat larger , and has a wider curve . The are mainly used for push cuts and skiving . Once you get used to them , they become your go to bench knife , they can be a PITA for the uninitiated to sharpen .

I have an interesting one I think.  I don't really have any idea yet on what it was used for, but I'm thinking some kind of fruit maybe?

I'd guess filleting knife

It looks very similar to a grapefruit knife.

Hmmm, yours puts me in mind of another Joseph Rodgers tool Neil, the famous OSS Escape Knife. It had three identical saw blades, with the intention that when one got dull, the user could simply switch to the next.

That seems like a very logical guess.  Any idea if it might be a special type of fillet knife, optimized for something specific?
