Why not just use the new wrapper for the old blade? That way you don't need to keep the wrapper until you throw the blade away
What are you going to wrap the last blade in if you forget to buy new ones?
Painter’s tape.
Why wrap it until you've bought new blades? Unless you're planning to stop shaving for years, in which case the blade might rust.
Just keep it in the razor, you can't change it anyway.
This is where that saying "one is none" comes in. Have enough blades. Buy more well before you run out
That's what I do. I suppose I didn't articulate that well.
I do it a little bit differently in keeping the very first wrapper so that when I get to the very last blade, there's a wrapper to put it in.
Minute variations, same end results.
If you don't replace a blade until you have a replacement blade, why not just presume you'll shave forever and use the wrapper from the next?
I did stop shaving for years and when I went back to shaving and replaced the old blade, and wrapped it in the replacement blade's wrapper
