The grinning grater

I've blipped him before, but he deserves a second showing as this grater is a true inspiration. He is very advanced in years and should probably be thinking about retirement but his lust for grating is so strong that I think he will just keep on grating until he can literally grate no longer. No matter how much cheese is put in front of him, he will grate it all with that big grin on his face.
(I have no idea where he came from, I didn't buy him, i don't remember being given him but I've had him for as long as I can remember.
It is perfectly normal to refer to kitchen utensils as 'he', right?)
