Used Blade Container?

I use an old soup can, painted with rust resistant paint, decorate with blade wrappers. When it fills up, I'll toss into our recycling bin.
Coors aluminum bottle, with a huge assortment of blade wrappers glued on. Dremelled a slot into the cap. I had fun making this one.

Cute, very cute!
Other things that work great are old prescription bottles, and just tape them up a little when full. But my favorites are empty vitamin bottles because many of then have a flip top lid with a wide opening, nothing to unscrew and screw back on, just flip the lid open and drop in your blade. I would also tape them to ensure they stay closed when thrown out.
My favorite is the sharps container that I got from the Pharmacy that has a bracket for hanging on the wall next to my medicine cabinet. When its full in about 5 years I'll just bring it in to the Pharmacy for proper disposal and get another one. It's a little unsightly, but it's my own personal bathroom, and no one else uses it. I find it convenient to drop a blade in right after my last shave with a blade.

That's perfect, no one will touch it!
I did the same thing, I think it will take me more than 10 years to fill it though. I use one AC blade a month or longer, I don't shave everyday.

I use my med bottles with label removed.
figure in an unfortunate event, any one comming in contact with it can visibly see its contents.

I use a baby food jar that my daughters once ate from. The red and white paint was leftover from Christmas ornaments we put their hand and foot prints on. I hope I don't accidentally break it.

That’s definitely the most valuable one so far!
Oh, something like that. Under the sink. The sun will go supernova before I fill it.
It ain't sexy. It ain't clever. It lacks even a "Generation X" sense of irony. It is almost "Soviet" in its practicality.

If it was soviet, it would have leaked.
I use an empty Taster's Choice instant coffee glass jar
True. But for some reason this sparked a memory of me reading that jettisoned "drop tanks" from Soviet aircraft were a valued salvage item back in the day. They made good water tanks for showers in "off the grid" dachas.
I used to use an old empty soap tub. Recently found that used blades fit in the opening from a seltzer can so sometimes I just stick them in an old can that goes out to recycling.
