Show us your blade banks 🪒

I’ve kind of wondered about, when mine is full, taking it to the restroom at the local shopping center and dropping it in the sharps container there.
Mine is the Feather like TexOkie Shaver’s.

This wouldn't be your seven day set of Gold Dollar razors would it?

No, that is another "blade bank" of mine. I only have four now, after giving one to my little brother.

I’m not aging very gracefully at all. So a pill bottle it is. Dab of glue inside the cap and it’s tight. Lasts for around a year. Then a new one is cheap

Feather was kind enough to build the blade bank into the pack of blades. Smart, convenient and responsible. I wish that every blade manufacturer would do this.
Â
Can you get the blades out again, to recycle the metal and hard plastic separately?
Â
No and to be honest there is no point. The amount of metal and hard plastic you would use over a life time trivial. You wouldn’t even fill up a single garbage bag. Besides I don’t think it’s a great idea to have the loose blades floating around a recycling plant anyways. Much better for them to be locked away nice and safe for all of eternity IMO. I’m sure you could break them open with hammer if you really wanted to but I don’t do that.
If you want to go really green you can always buy a straight razor with a wooden handle. You can use it for a few decades and sharpen it on a rock when it gets dull. When it’s finished. you can kill the edge, compost the handle and recycle the blade. It doesn’t get much greener than that. Less packaging, transport and embodied energy. DE’s aren’t exactly killing the planet either though.

Tin money box. I may never fill it, who knows.
Â
Your local pharmacy should take it for recycling. It's considered to be medical waste Hazmat in my state. I use an empty rubbing alcohol bottle for my used blades.

It amazes me to see so many "HUGE" blade banks each time I see one of these threads pop up... This one here I filled to about 95% capacity and recently disposed of it and moved on to another I had laying around. The pics were taken way before it was ready to dispose of...

Mine came full of tea bags.

I hope you made sure to eat those Tide pods so they didn't go to waste my friend!
Â
Absolutely LOVE the way you hang your brushes my friend!I’m not aging very gracefully at all. So a pill bottle it is. Dab of glue inside the cap and it’s tight. Lasts for around a year. Then a new one is cheap
