Get a copy of an old version of a file, using git gui/gitk

Hi!

I am trying to introduce new people to Git, and am primarily showing
how to use the GUI tools (git gui/gitk), since the project is running
on Windows. A question that I couldn't answer arose:

How do I save a copy of an older version of a file (one that has either
been modified locally, or an earlier version in the project history),
from git gui or gitk?

>From the command line, I would try to find the SHA-1 and use git
cat-file, but I can't figure out how to do it from the GUIs. Or, to
fall back to the command-line, how to get the SHA-1 for the object out
of git gui/gitk.
