Disposal of knives

[Deebs]

Hi

I have a set of kitchen knives that I no longer want, how do I best dispose of them ? I know I cannot throw them in the bin so what? Do I go to the dump? Take them to a police station?

 

[Jupitus]

Hide them up your nose?

*runs*

 

[Ch3tan]

Jup's just provided you with an answer, clearly you deposit them into his back.

In all seriousness though, the council dump.

Nothing wrong with throwing them in the bin. Personally I'd shove them in the recycling thing at Tesco.

 

[sayward]

Won't charity shops take them any more? Thought they'd sell any kitchen stuff, knives or not.

 

[Furr]

Take a hammer to them and take to the Dump I guess, Our recycling is pretty strict where we live, loads of things that say they are recyclable aren't allowed in the bins, otherwise we get a big orange "contaminated" sticker put on the bins

 

[Yaka]

grind the sharp bits or former sharp bits till they are flat bend em L shape and take em to your local council run recycle place. and chuck em where it says scrap metal

 

[Tom]

Throw them over the nearest prison wall. You get to reduce the prison population, and get rid of your knives. Result!

 

[chipper]

take em to a council tip site if your worried about some kids picking em up

I had a similar problem the other week with some things I found of my dads.

I found a nice quiet lake and threw them in there, couldn't find a better alternative in my head, although they were possibly worse than knives.

Lake? That the first thing that comes into your head when rubbish disposal comes to mind?

I do hope you're joking

It wasn't the first thing that came into my head at all, it was the best answer for what I had, a lake is wet and deep and that is what I needed. It wasn't some beauty spot lake it was a manky lake in Stoke.

It wasn't rubbish I take my rubbish to the local tip, it was something that could fit in your pocket, not exactly a car.

heh, disposing of grenades really should be left to pros. Take them to the police and ask for munitions disposal - they know what to do. You wouldnt have got in the shit anyway.

Lol grenades, not quite.

I couldn't go to the police, my dad and our name has a sort of relationship with the police and the front page of our local paper

Did the Lady of the Lake reach up and grab your package as you tossed it ?

 

[Bob007]

Get them engraved, Name, Address, Some personnel stuff.
Put them in a box, wrap them up in plastic to keep em safe for as long as posible.
Throw them in the bin, the next time they'll see the light of day will be in thousand years when some Time Team type crew dig them up and wonder what they were for and adding ya details to em will only confuse them more and might get you a foot not in future history as an acient king or something.

she held a magnifying glass in her free hand tbh

 

[old.Tohtori]

Recycle!

*looks around*

Noones gonna believe i'm one of those greens right? ...right

But, if you engrave them and give them to people as Santamas pressies, would save you a ton

 

[CorNokZ]

Wrap newpapers around them and use some duct tape to seal it if you cba recycle them or give them to charity..

Reminds me of my old chemistry teacher. The Chemistry department at school had to get rid of supplies because they were no longer allowed to store such large quantities.

He (legally!) flushed the entire departments supply of radioactive materials.

He disposed of several kilos of pure sodium by throwing it in a lake! After the first explosion he only threw in small amounts at a time.
