A receptacle for the safe storage and disposal of used cutting blades, the receptacle being configured as a closed receptacle having an insert slot at opposite ends for the insertion of the used cutting blades into the receptacle. Each insert slot includes an angled guide for guiding the used cutting blade toward the insert slot. Interiorly, the angled guides act as detents inside the closed receptacle to inhibit the inadvertent dislodgement of the used cutting blade outwardly through the adjacent insert slot. The top wall of the receptacle is angled inwardly into the receptacle to serve as a deflector to prevent a used cutting blade from passing directly from one insert slot to the other insert slot. The receptacle is configured to be belt mounted or to be releasably secured to a toolbox, wall, or the like. The receptacle is also configured to be readily disposable when filled with used cutting blades.
