Abstract
A blade disposal container is provided. The blade disposal container includes a housing including an upper end, a base, a first sidewall opposing a second sidewall, a rear wall, and an open front face including a perimeter edge. A slot disposed on the upper end extends through the upper end and into the interior volume and is configured to receive a utility blade therethrough. A channel disposed adjacent the perimeter edge of the open front face enables a shield to slidably retract and extend over the open front face. A magnetic member removably attachable to the base fastens the shield over the open front face and is configured to draw the utility blade into the interior volume and magnetically adhere the blade against the base via its magnetic field.
