    You can get a free biohazard waste bin in any pharmacy (normally for needles and such), and the pharmacy will take it when it is full.

      Really the better tip is that the company should of spent more R&D into it and designed a better grip. A different texture literally makes a huge difference.

    So 4 dollars for a metal tin seems to be a little high I have used a saftey razor for sometime and just like my dad and grandad we have a old metal can punch a hole in the top and drop in the old blades this is my modern safety feature my dad and grandad just used a soup can once it got full we would take it to the scrap metal guy when we made a trip for "soda" cans or scrap iron

    Can I ask a question? What are the best blades to buy for this razor. For some reason the single edge blades I bought do not completely lay flat. I have watched loading videos and I have made sure that the blades are secured in the notches on the side but they bow out in the center until I have flattened them with the screw, it's almost as if the blades are too long. The Leaf brand blades fit fine and go in easily so I am very confused. Has anyone else encountered this? Did I just get an off brand? Any advice would be appreciated.

    Love my Leaf razor, but the Leaf blades are garbage lol. They dull very fast and aren’t the sharpest things around by far. I’ll keep the ones I have for emergency spares, but will load it with King E Gillettes from now on. They’re pricey, but worth it.

    I dunno why but whenever I dry shave with store bought plastic razors I get INSANE reaction, like full blown allergy. With metal razors it's nonexistent. With plastic rasors and foam or water it's nonexistent too.

      I'm in the same boat. i want it, because i know its more cost efficient over time, but i usually luck out and find the gift pack of a generic brands gillette fusion knock off. Like $15 for both the handle and like 48 cartridges. I'm just now down to my last 5 after 3 years. And i have another one after that. Its just hard to see the value in this over what i got now.

    Sounds like Leaf's just jumped on the eco-bandwagon grift. Every safety razor since, um, forever, produces little waste, and carbon dioxide is your friend; I don't worry about it, and neither should you. Don't bother buying some ridiculous tiny box to store old blades, cut a slit in the top of any old jar and fill it up; I've been working on filling the same old baking powder jar for years. Once its done, most pharmacies have a sharps box you can put them in. I don't think I'd put them in the recycling for fear that some unsuspecting guy sorting the recycling would get cut.

  • @gravity4religion

    $85 plus shipping is a ridiculous amount of money. We desperately need plastic free Alternatives like this and the fact that they're not making affordable for everybody is despicable. Leaf really cares more about profits and they do the environment. This razor should not cost more than $30 plus shipping
