Also this. Saw blades are decent steel, why wouldn't you save that and cut something out of it? I've sen people make knives out of them. Would make good scrapers too.

>> No.2744849

I throw my old razor blades in a jar full of salt water, rusts them out nice and good. Yes, stainless steel razor blades still rust. It's not so much that i worry about slicing up the garbage men, but i just don't want to cut myself in case a razor slashes through the garbage bag and i step on it or something.

As far as circular saw blades, they're really not sharp enough that they're going to instantly cut anyone who handles them. But if you're super worried about it, leave them outside for a month, that'll rust up the blades dull eventually.

One, who is just sticking their hands in a trashcan to be at risk of getting cut? Two, if im throwing a blade out, it implies that it's dull, so it's not going to slice you like a nice new blade could. Instead it would be a nasty jagged cut, but that'd require a little bit of force

That sums up my thoughts about the sentiment as well. A razor blade or saw blade is statistically one of the least dangerous things at one of these processing facilities. These people assume that the trash is being hand sorted and that all of it is "neat" household trash and not a lot of shit that comes from demo site that was just wrecked by an excavator and scooped up into a dumpster. At least at the facilities that I have been to in person, the sorting process is very hands off, where shit gets dumped out of the trucks, fed into a giant shredder that can shred an engine block, then fed through an automated sorting system to remove metal before finally being compacted and sent to the actual landfill.

Faggots, the lot of you. There’s really no excuse for your word diarrhea in the age of search engines.

No retards, they don’t have trucks that pick up bins and load them automatically in many areas including NYC and my shithole flyover state. It’s all collected by hand in many places still. I guess you all use Kevlar trash bags.
