Thank you for that tip, I also have a sharpener unit and its real handy and I get a bit more use out of each blade!

In reply to Ella. Be careful tossing them in the recycling. When they get to the depot, it is sorted manually. You don't want someone to cut themselves. Maybe tape them between 2 metal lids?

In reply to Denise Lawrence. Me too! Works well, safely and easy to toss the contents (not the plastic crystal light container) into the "mixed metal" bin at our local recycle center, then re-use the plastic container again. Great minds . . . .

I put my old blades in a crystal light container and when full toss it in trash with lid taped down..Damaged needles go in same container.

Thanks for the info. I save my “used/dull” blades the same way.

Thank you for the lesson! I never knew that I needed to oil my rotary cutter and will do that today! 🙂

thanks for the tip on oiling the cutter. I use a plastic jar and put all my old blades, pins and needles in for disposing safely.
