For a moment I thought they might be single edge industrial blades for window scrapers. Is disappoint.
For clarity, I use them for scraping paint pen off car windscreens at work, for reasons best known to themselves stores just hand over a new scraper with five blades, instead of ordering large boxes of blades and handing those out. Go, as they say, figure.

Are you on good terms with your local barber? I know mine uses straight razors for neck/eyebrows, so they may take them off you if you really don't need them.

Keep them, and learn to shave with a straight razor!

Hmmm, sadly I think I definitely class as time starved. I tend to use any barber I pass at work without a queue, and attempting to incorporate a straight razor shave into my morning routine could be considered a suicide attempt 😂
I thought most stw'ers were getting up, grinding themselves the perfect coffee before a straight razor shave and then using the blades to whittle a well seasoned log into a handy household implement before work. I thought these would be snapped up!
I could just send them back for a refund 🙂

To the OP I hope you’ve taken into account the law of knives etc
How are you going to prove that someone on here is over 18 years of age ! Disposing of them safely is probably the best you can do.

The law. Under the Criminal Justice Act 1988, it is an offence for any person to sell to a person under 18: any knife, knife blade or razor blade. ... any other article that has a blade or is sharply pointed and is made or adapted for use for causing injury to the person.

it doesn't have to be used in a straight razor does it?

surely you can get something like this https://shavingstation.co.uk/1230-razorock-hawk-v2-black-single-edge-razor.html and just use them up

Obviously spending 30 quid to rectify a five pound error....but why not?

@unfitgeezer good job I wasn't selling anything I guess 🙄

I'll be returning for refund, wouldn't want any moral panic going on.
