Blade Holder for Scalpel Blades

[BoilerBowHunter]

For those running the replaceable scalpel
Blade type knifes like the Tyto, Havolons, etc. - has anyone found a handy solution for storing used blades in the field? Tyto has a box that comes with replacement blades, but can’t stomach the price. I haven’t tried it yet, but a toothbrush holder came to mind.

I’m sure someone has an ingenious idea out there. Whatcha got?

These are what sevr broadheads come in. They happen to be the perfect size and they weigh nothing. I took one last year with an extra broadhead and blades in it.

A triple folded piece of aluminum foil makes a good little storage pouch. then i slide that inside my cheater eyeglass pouch where I store the knife and new blades all together

I use the Outdoor Edge and the blades come in a heavy plastic wrapping. I just stick the old blade in it after pulling the new one. We use these at work for sharps. They are pretty light and plenty durable.

Haven’t tried it, but what about an old pill bottle?

I was thinking something similar. I think a travel toothbrush holder could work as well as possibly an empty travel shampoo container or something like that. Will experiment more when I get home.

That would work too. I’d just want something that closed pretty solidly so it wouldn’t come open in my pack

Yeah, I that’s a great idea. I am probably overestimating how long the blades are. If they fit then that will definitely be my solution. I’m sure there is something out there that works.

Might depend on your specific knife but this works for mine

What about the NUUN tablets plastic
Container for flavored water? I stuff cotton balls in mine in case of emergency. They are pretty close to that length. Worth a try.

Chewable Pepto tablet container is probably about the same size as well.

I found these are cabelas. they work great and weigh only a few grams

Second the gut hook box. I bought that and just put regular blades in it as the gut hook wants all that useful.

My wife uses an emergency kit match case. Bright orange, tough, screw on top.

Works good and is safe. Pill bottle does the same thing just a bit bigger.

I use a Coglans match container then when I get back to town I throw then in the sharps at work

These are heavy duty and petty much crush proof. They are what a pop bottle starts as before they are molded. There are several different sizes and shapes too.
