tshusker, Cool. :-)
The J. Wiss & Sons Co. website has a lot of catalogs, and I found mention of the 8-BLT model in catalogs from 1963 and 1969:

http://jwissandsons.com/1960s/1969/A-398R.pdf
However, I wouldn't guarantee that it doesn't appear in others:

For instance, there is a pair of belt shears at the bottom of page 17 of the 1950 catalog, but it doesn't mention a model number:
