I found this in my grandfather’s house, what is it?

So, what did I find in my grandfather’s house?

Turns out, it was a hand-cranked apple peeler from the 1930s—complete with a clamp to attach to the table and a razor-sharp blade. It had fed generations of pies, crisps, and after-school snacks. And now, it sits proudly in my kitchen—a beautiful, strange reminder that even the simplest tools can carry rich histories.
