Mm... there is nothing about recycling blades on that web page. It's just a page selling blades.

Click on the "ordering" part of the menu in the top left corner. At least that worked for me.

This is a good company and they have good blades, not seconds. I have traded with Mr. L P Sharp for many years and now I think that he has sold his name to a company . I put my old blades in an empty blade package and when I get enough I mail them in and get new blades in return for a small amount. Just check out the new blade cost at a shop and you will see how much you can save. But you need to keep your used blades separate by brand name.

I just put my used blades back into the container they came in. I take a sharpie and put a big black X across the used ones. I use them to cut other stuff besides fabric, like paper, wallpaper, tool box liner etc. Eventually I tape it shut and throw it away. I will have to check the website out.
Jcrow I agree with you. SOme things you just need to buy good quality. My sister always buys the cheapest she can and then complains when it isn't good quality. I do have some things where I know I won't use it much or for very long and the cheap stuff is fine. But for most things I try to buy the best I can afford. I just feel that you mostly get what you paid for.

Thanks for sharing this website. I am going to make use of this. Great to be able to recycle the blades.

I recycle my old blades. If you look on the I telnet, there is a place where you can send them and they recycle them. They also sell blades,but I just buy new ones from JoAnn's with a coupon. I recycle things whenever I can.
