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.

Same Story here in TN. Back when we had birds we removed the entrails with a bird knife hook. The only thing I use the hook for now is cleaning trout.
