I keep the case they come in to put the bad blades in. But then I just throw them away. I didn't know someone could use them. I'll have to get it out.

Find someone who chews tobacco and ask them for the empty can. Those cans just exactly fit a blade/disk and do not come apart too easily. You can store more than one blade and throw them out all at once.

I put them in a tuna can and put them in the recycle can for Mr Garbage man. I had called our town recycle center and that's what the recommended

I put mine in a Pringles can that has been wrapped in duct tape.

[quote=whinnytoo]I put them in the plastic container they come in

That is what I have done also. I have found it is good to mark on the container used.

I reuse an empty prescription bottle, the tall large type. I write "used" on there and they are safe from fingers until the bottle is full which could take years the way I change blades.

i put them aside to use with paper and if i need to get rid of one i put them in with my needles to dispose of. i buy 10 at a time for 14.95 which only 1.50 each and they last a long time. i get them through --jhittlesewing.com.

I have a small, hinged lid, metal tin that I have marked "Sharps" on. I make sure to keep it out of reach of small, curious fingers.

I take it to my LQS ever time I take a class there, when I remember it when already going or when it is bugging me. They have proper Sharps disposal bins there and anyone is allowed to dispose of quilting Sharps there at any time. They have no issue with me walking in, dumping my Sharps and not buying anything or having a class or whatever. So that is how I dispose of my Sharps.
