Yep, these are what I was writing about - mine has more ridiculous design but basically a tin can with a slot.

I use an old plastic fish-oil supplement bottle with a flip-top lid. When it's full I'll duct-tape it shut, mark "sharps" all over it, and recycle it.
I use an old Menthos container. Why? To be honest, it looks nice and I'm just curious to see how mane blades can be stored 
On the other hand this is quite ridiculous, most blades come in dispencers that can hold the used blades.
I guess we're looking for a solution of a non existing problem

I use an old container from an alum block that was used up. I would've otherwise just thrown it away but it has been most useful. When its full I will tape it up with packing or duct tape and send to the landfill...

My 100 pack of Astra SP have no plastic dispenser that can be used for old blades.
Ah, I really thought every dispenser could store used blades. Wilkinson Sword, Derby, Hema (a Dutch household store) and the Gillettes I used in the '70s and '80s can do this.
An old plastic Peanut Butter container with a slit in the lid did the trick. I took the extra precaution of taping the lid to the jar. This one will last for years before I send it off for recycling.
