Fifty odd years ago when we had loads of quail here in MD, I was harvesting a fair number of birds and an older gent who got me started on quail gave me a gut hook fashioned out of a metal coat hanger. He insisted that as soon as I had the bird in hand you removed the entrails. Worked pretty slick and the hook was cheap.

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 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.
